Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday left for Japan to hold the annual India-Japan bilateral summit with his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe.
This is Modi’s third visit to Japan for the summit and will be his 12th meeting with Abe since 2014.
Cooperation in the Indo-Pacific region and in the defence and security sector, and leveraging Japanese capabilities for India’s development initiatives will be the highlights of the agenda in the summit which will be held on Monday.
India is the only country with which Japan holds annual bilateral summits while India has a similar arrangement with Russia too.
