The meeting marked the second one-on-one engagement between the two leaders in five months, highlighting the growing strategic partnership between New Delhi and Abu Dhabi.India and the UAE signed several agreements during the visit, according to a statement from the Indian Prime Minister’s Office.

The UAE’s exit has significant implications for India as the South Asian nation has long argued for stable and affordable oil prices. During his meeting with the UAE leader, Modi said India’s priority is to ensure the Strait of Hormuz remains open, safe and free for navigation. The Middle East is a key energy supplier for the South Asian nation, and disruptions in the strategic waterway have pushed up domestic fuel costs while adding pressure on inflation and the rupee.Modi’s comments come as BRICS foreign ministers gather in New Delhi for a summit. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi is among those attending, with Tehran pushing the bloc to condemn the US and Israel’s military campaign against it and seeking India’s support to build consensus. The effort is likely to face resistance from the UAE — a BRICS member since 2024 — which was targeted by Iranian missile strikes during the conflict.This advertisement has not loaded yet.Notice for the Postmedia NetworkThis website uses cookies to personalize your content (including ads), and allows us to analyze our traffic.
