Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Saudi Arabia to strengthen strategic ties, particularly in the energy sector. During his visit, Modi will meet Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and co-chair the second meeting of the Saudi-India Strategic Partnership Council. Saudi Arabia is India's second-largest trading partner, and bilateral energy trade alone was worth $25.7 billion in 2023-24. The visit is expected to focus on investments, energy security, food security, defense cooperation, and the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor Agreement. Modi's trip will also boost India's role in geopolitics.
