International News: Every action of PM Modi in SCO Summit was in discussion. Warm hug with Russian President Vladimir Putin, shaking hands with Chinese President Xi Jinping and patting Turkish President Erdogan on the back… all these made it clear who India is close to and who it is keeping distance from. At the same time, not looking at Pakistan PM Shahbaz Sharif was a big message in itself.

The most discussed topic was the friendship between Modi and Putin. Both sat in the same car and talked for about 45 minutes. It was said that Putin also kept waiting for Modi. Later, the meeting of the two leaders which lasted for more than an hour made it clear that India-Russia relations are not just formal, but are based on deep friendship.

Stand decently on the side

The most viral moment of the summit was when PM Modi and Putin moved forward while having a deep conversation with each other and Sharif kept watching from the side. This scene was a testimony to the fact that Pakistan is no longer being given any importance in India's diplomacy. By ignoring Sharif, Modi gave a direct message that there is no place for those who promote terrorism.

Strong statement on terrorism

PM Modi strongly raised the issue of terrorism in his address. He said that the Pahalgam attack was not just an attack on India but on the entire humanity. He appealed to the SCO countries to abandon double standards and fight against terrorism unitedly. This statement left an even stronger impact in the presence of Sharif.

Warmth with Erdogan

PM Modi's meeting with Turkish President Erdogan was also special. Turkey often supports Pakistan, but by shaking hands with them and patting them on the back, Modi showed that India can create new dimensions in relations. This meeting was an indication that India has the ability to change even difficult relationships.

Meeting with Xi Jinping

Modi's conversation with President Xi Jinping was light-hearted and full of smiles. This meeting between India and China amid America's tariff policy gave the message that India's role in the big game is strong and it is not dependent on any one camp.

India's words are important

India's demands also found a place in the Tianjin Declaration issued at the end of the summit. In this, the Pahalgam attack was condemned and condolences were expressed to the victim families. It became clear that India's voice in the SCO can no longer be ignored and the world is listening to India's words carefully.
