In a first working session on Sunday, the heads of state and government of the G7 discussed global economic issues.
“All G7 countries are concerned about the crises that are currently to be overcome – falling growth rates in some countries, rising inflation, shortages of raw materials and disruption to supply chains. These are no small challenges and it is therefore important to share responsibility,” said Scholz.
“The G7 are a good community to develop joint responses to the challenges of our time. It is important that we act decisively and also as a unit. Both belong together,” he added.

He highlighted India’s growth story and mentioned various initiatives undertaken by the government to further achieve the country’s development agenda. He also lauded the contribution of the diaspora in promoting India’s success story and acting as brand ambassadors for India’s success.
In his address to the Indian diaspora, PM Modi said, “Today’s India has come out of the mentality of ‘it happens, it runs like this’. Today India takes a pledge to have to do, have to do, and have to do on time,” he said. (ANI)
