PM Modi Shares Photos with Meloni After Private Rome Dinner, Colosseum Tour

Modi said the leaders exchanged views on a wide range of subjects and looked ahead to talks aimed at boosting India-Italy ties.

  • On Wednesday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi shared photos from the Colosseum with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, marking the final stop of his five-nation tour before scheduled bilateral talks.

  • Both leaders are advancing the five-year Joint Strategic Action Plan while building on record bilateral trade of $16.77 billion, with talks centering on Defence, green shipping, and clean hydrogen.
  • Discussions will prioritize operational blueprints for the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor, alongside a scheduled visit to the Food and Agriculture Organisation to reinforce shared food resilience commitments.
  • Modi highlighted cultural ties by sharing his interaction with Italian painter Giampaolo Tomassetti, who presented an artwork of Varanasi, which the Prime Minister described as a glimpse of Kashi in Rome.
