A very big and important news is currently emerging in the corridors of international politics, under which a high-level and very special bilateral meeting is going to be held between United Nations (UN) Secretary General Antonio Guterres and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during the upcoming ‘BRICS’ conference. This meeting, taking place amidst serious issues like global peace, security, climate change and reform of international institutions, is being considered very important from the diplomatic point of view. All eyes around the world are on what deep and far-reaching effects it will have on the global stage when the top leader of the world’s largest democracy and the highest administrative head of the United Nations hold discussions with each other. Through this meeting, India is once again preparing to raise the voice of the Global South prominently on the international stage and give a strong message of bringing transparency in the functioning of global institutions. India’s main agenda and outline of global priorities during the BRICS summit The country’s agenda during this multilateral conference to be hosted or participated by India is very clear and far-sighted. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, India has always been a strong supporter of multilateralism and inclusive development. This time, in the BRICS conference and the meeting with the UN Chief, India’s main focus will be on presenting the policy of zero tolerance against terrorism to the world, protecting the economic interests of developing countries, and strengthening the global supply chain. Along with this, digital public infrastructure (DPI), green energy transition and enhancing global cooperation to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) within the stipulated time frame will also be specifically discussed, so that the weak and backward countries of the world can be brought into the mainstream. Reforms in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and the issue of India’s permanent membership The biggest and sensitive issue in the much-awaited meeting between Antonio Guterres and Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be to bring immediate reforms in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) and other global administrative bodies. India has been raising the voice for a long time that according to the changing realities of today’s 21st century, the structure of organizations like the UN has become completely outdated and there is a dire need for comprehensive change in it. India, representing more than one-third of the world’s population, not getting permanent membership in the Security Council reflects the inconsistency of the current global order. During this meeting, Prime Minister Modi will emphasize to the UN Chief that unless the major developing countries of the world and the Global South do not get a fair and equitable share in the global decision-making bodies, the claims of global peace and security will remain incomplete. Brainstorming on Climate Change, Voice of the Global South and Economic Security In today’s times when the entire world is grappling with the ill-effects of climate change, global warming, food security and dire economic uncertainties, the coordination between India and the United Nations becomes all the more relevant. India has shown the world a new path towards environmental protection through unique global campaigns like ‘Mission Life’ (LiFE – Lifestyle for Environment) and International Solar Alliance (ISA). In this meeting with UN Chief Guterres, there will also be an in-depth discussion on how developed countries should help developing countries on the front of climate finance and technology transfer as per their promise. Prime Minister Modi will try to ensure that in the name of environmental protection, no unnecessary pressure is put on the economic progress of developing countries, but they get an opportunity to move forward with equal rights. India’s growing role in global diplomacy and its future direction. This meeting between the UN Secretary General and Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a clear proof of how strong and decisive India’s position at the center of international diplomacy has become today. Today, be it western or eastern countries, everyone’s eyes look towards India with hopeful eyes for the solution of every major problem of the world. By using a powerful platform like BRICS, India is not only proving its economic strength, but is also fulfilling its historical tradition of taking all the countries of the world together. The results of this high-profile meeting will prove to be a milestone in determining the direction and condition of global politics in the times to come, making it clear that India is no longer a country that follows the course of the world, but has itself become a nation that is creating a new path for the world.
