PM Modi & Donald Trump G7 Meet: Missing Hug, Trade Tariffs & Pacific Command Shift | G7 Summit 2026

The Indian Prime Minister and the US President met at the G7 Summit in France after a sixteen-month gap. The interaction featured a formal handshake instead of the customary hug, reflecting a shift in diplomatic ties amid ongoing trade tariff disputes. Ahead of the bilateral meeting, the United States reverted the name of the Indo-Pacific Command to the US Pacific Command, dropping the term 'Indo'. Experts on the broadcast noted this name change signals a potential US accommodation of Chinese interests and raises questions about the future of the Quad alliance. During the summit, the Indian Prime Minister addressed the outreach session, highlighting energy supply chain disruptions and the impact of the West Asia crisis on the Global South. He emphasized the need for international financial institutions to support developing countries through partnerships rather than a donor-receiver dynamic. The broadcast highlighted the strained bilateral relationship, exacerbated by recent US tariffs and the death of three Indian sailors.
