Prime Minister Narendra Modi met US President Donald Trump at the G7 summit. Both the leaders have met each other after 16 months. The PM will also hold bilateral talks with Canada, UK and UAE here. The meeting of PM Modi and Trump has taken place at a time when the issue of attack on Indian sailors by the US Navy near the coast of Oman is heated.

Will the issue of killing of Indians arise?

Another big question is whether PM Modi will raise questions on the G-7 platform about the three Indian sailors killed in the American attack in the Strait of Hormuz. Instead of apologizing for the death of three Indians, on the contrary, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that all commercial ships should immediately follow the orders of the US military deployed to maintain peace and security in the area. While there is anger in India regarding this, questions are also being raised on America’s attitude.

Trump-PM Modi will meet: White House

The White House said on Saturday (June 13, 2026) that US President Donald Trump will meet Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and other world leaders during the G7 summit to be held in France next week. The two leaders are expected to review the developments in the ongoing talks regarding the proposed India-US trade agreement. According to the US official, President Trump will hold a bilateral meeting with PM Modi on June 17, after which he will attend a working lunch with G7 leaders, alliance partners and technical officials.

Why are European countries angry with Trump?

Amidst the recent tension in the Middle East, there is a lot of resentment among the leaders of European countries over the way the US President has commented about the allied countries. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes are on Trump’s presence in G7. Amidst the heavy tension that has been going on since February this year, America and Iran have finally agreed to a peace deal. During the last few months, due to the tough and harsh stance adopted by the US President towards many G-7 allies, old differences have once again emerged.

In recent times, his statements have created a situation of ideological conflict even with those global leaders with whom he used to have much better and respectable relations. Actually, the reason for Trump’s displeasure is the desire of America’s allies not to get involved in the US-Israel conflict against Iran. In reality, however, the president’s relations with the G7 have been strained for years. It started with a tense summit during the first term of the American President.

The equation between Trump and Macron changed

Trump has known this year’s summit host, French President Emmanuel Macron, for the longest time. However, in recent times, Trump’s comments regarding Macron have changed the equation between the two leaders. In recent times, Trump was sometimes seen commenting on Macron and sometimes commenting personally on Macron’s marriage. In such circumstances, Macron appeared more angry with his American counterpart in recent times. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes are on the stance of the countries in G7 even with Trump.

The world order seems to be changing rapidly during the second term of US President Donald Trump. From the stage of the World Economic Forum 2026 (WEF) in Davos, Macron has fueled the debate on global politics and trade war by asking China to invest in Europe. He invited China to invest in the European market, but also imposed many conditions. Now China has responded to this.

Macron invites China to invest in Europe

Macron said, ‘Europe needs not just cheap products and devices from China, but such technology and investment that will develop Europe as well. He alleged that the standards of Chinese products often do not match European standards. European companies are suffering losses because of China because they give heavy subsidies to their products. China is producing more goods than required, which is having a negative impact on the world market. The Chinese Foreign Ministry has given a strong reaction to Macron’s statement.

China expressed hope to work with Europe

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Guo Jiakun said that the economic and trade relations between China and the European Union are based on mutual benefit. He said, the growth of Chinese products in the market is not due to subsidy, but due to investment in technology and supply chain. Our products are cheaper and better. China has never deliberately tried to achieve a trade surplus (a country’s total exports exceeding its total imports). We are ready to serve the world as a market also. China has expressed hope that Europe will adopt a visionary approach and open-mindedness and work together with China.

‘Europe will provide a fair environment for Chinese businesses’

Talking about Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Europe, Guo Jiakun said that the Chinese government has continuously supported Chinese companies interested in investing in Europe in accordance with market principles. China said that they also expect a similar welcome for their companies. Guo said, ‘We hope that the European country will create a fair, non-discriminatory, transparent environment for Chinese businesses.’

Clash between Trump and Macron on Greenland issue

While on one hand other European leaders are showing restraint regarding Greenland, on the other hand Macron has adopted an aggressive stance against Trump. Taking aim at Trump, he said that international law is being trampled underfoot and it seems that only the laws of the most powerful people matter. His (Donald Trump) own morality only limits global power and he does not need international law.

In the ongoing WEF meeting in Davos, Switzerland, French President Emmanuel Macron strongly criticized America’s action regarding Greenland. Questioning the policies of US President Donald Trump, Moukro pointed out that we are moving towards a world without rules. The French President said that international law is being trampled under foot and it seems that only the laws of the most powerful people matter.

Macron’s speech in sunglasses is going viral

Apart from President Macron’s speech, his sunglasses were also a topic of discussion. His speech with glasses went viral on social media. He strongly criticized US President Donald Trump’s threat that he would impose heavy tariffs if Europe did not allow them to take over Greenland. While on one hand other European leaders are showing restraint regarding the Atlantic region, on the other hand Macron has adopted an aggressive stance.

Macron showed mirror to Trump regarding war

Macron mentioned the Russian attack on Ukraine and the ongoing wars in the Middle East and Africa. His entire statement was directly aimed at Trump. He said that his (Donald Trump) own morality only limits global power and he does not need international law. Macron said Europe will stand up for regional sovereignty and the rule of law, even as the world moves forward without rules. This may also include imposing strict trade restrictions by the European Union.

A befitting reply to Trump’s bullying

Macron said, ‘We give priority to respect rather than bullies. We prefer the rule of law rather than cruelty.” The world needs to prioritize respect and rules-based order rather than coercion. Macron gave this speech after Trump threatened to impose heavy tariffs on French wine and Champagne and took Macron’s five-point chat. Trump had vowed on Saturday to increase tariffs on several European allies, including France, from February 1 unless they support the US over Greenland. The European Union has called it blackmail.

Trump threatens France with tariffs

European leaders will meet in Brussels on Thursday (22 January 2026) for an emergency summit on Greenland. France refused to join US President Trump’s proposed Gaza ‘Board of Peace’. On this Trump said, ‘Nobody wants him because he will be out of office very soon.’ He then threatened to impose a 200 percent tariff on French wine and Champagne. Macron has urged the European Union to implement its anti-trade tools, which could limit America’s access.

‘Big economies weaken international organizations’

Macron said, ‘I can give examples of many such international organizations which the big economies have weakened or left. Today, when we look at the current situation, it clearly seems worrying. By fixing this we can face the challenges to come.

The anti-government protest by Gen-Z, which started on 25 September 2025 in the country Madagascar of the African continent, became violent. The situation became such that Madagascar’s President Andrey Rajoelina had to leave the country.

Clash between security forces and Gen-Z protesters

The President of Madagascar had claimed a day earlier that the army wanted to stage a coup. Here Gen-Z started protesting regarding lack of water and electricity. During this, thousands of youth took to the streets, who after some time clashed with the security forces. It is being told that about 22 people died in this clash. People here say that they have to struggle a lot even for basic services.

How Andrey Rajoelina came to power

According to the report of Radio France International, President Andrey Rajoelina was safely evacuated from Madagascar by a French military aircraft on Sunday (12 October 2025) at the request of French President Emmanuel Macron.
