Amid turmoil in US, Trump calls Modi to invite him for G7 summit

美国动乱之际，特朗普致电莫迪邀请其参加G7峰会

WASHINGTON/ NEW DELHI: US President Donald Trump on Tuesday formally invited Prime Minister Narendra Modi to attend the G7 summit to be held in the US later this year, acting on his desire to expand the size and scope of the grou of major world economic powers.

华盛顿/新德里：周二，美国总统唐纳德·特朗普正式邀请印度总理纳伦德拉·莫迪参加今年晚些时候在美国举行的G7峰会，以实现其扩大世界主要经济大国集团的规模和范围的愿望。

The two spoke over phone for 25 minutes even as racial tensions roiled America, discussing a range of topics including the situation on the India- border, the Covid-19 pandemic and the need for reforms in the World Health Organisation. The Indian statement said Modi expressed concern regarding the ongoing civil disturbances in the US, and conveyed his best wishes for an early resolution of the situation.

在种族紧张局势席卷美国之际，两人通过电话交谈了25分钟，讨论了一系列问题，包括中印边界局势、新冠疫情以及世界卫生组织改革的必要性。印度声明表示，莫迪对美国国内持续不断的骚乱表示关切，并表达了对局势早日得到解决的良好祝愿。

Modi commended Trump's views on an expanded G7 as a "creative and far-sighted approach", acknowledging that such a development would be in kee with the emerging realities of the post-Covid world. The PM said India would be happy to work with the US and other countries to ensure the success of the summit.

莫迪称赞了特朗普扩大七国集团的想法，称这是“富有创造性和远见的做法”。莫迪表示，印度将很高兴与美国和其他国家合作，以确保峰会取得成功。

Importantly, the Indian statement said the two leaders exchanged views on other topical issues, such as the Covid-19 situation in the two countries, the situation on the India- border, and the need for reforms in the WHO. The reference to the border tensions indicates the US's critical view of 's intrusions across the LAC, voiced by senior American officials, and that any divergence over Trump's claims to have recently discussed the issue with Modi did not affect the cordial exchange. Reacting to Trump’s statement and his offer to mediate, India had said the two leaders had not spoken since April and that the discussion was on anti-malarial drug HCQ for Covid-19 treatment.

双方还就两国新冠肺炎疫情、印中边界局势、世卫组织改革等热点问题交换了意见。提到边界紧张局势表明，美国高级官员对越过实控线的行为持批评态度，而特朗普声称最近与莫迪讨论过这个问题的任何分歧都不会影响双方的友好交流。在回应特朗普的声明及其提出的调停提议时，印度表示，两国领导人自4月以来一直没有对话，讨论的内容是抗疟疾药物羟氯喹治新冠肺炎。

While Trump had claimed he had spoken to India about India- tensions and that Modi seemed to be in a bad mood, India had responded by saying that it was looking to address the situation in Ladakh through exsting bilateral mechanisms with even as it remained firm on defending its sovereignty.

尽管特朗普声称他已经和印度谈过中印紧张关系，莫迪似乎心情不好，印度回应称，印度仍坚定捍卫其主权，正寻求通过与的现有双边机制来解决拉达克的局势。

"Had a warm and productive conversation with my friend President Donald Trump. We discussed his plans for the US presidency of G7, the Covid-19 pandemic, and many other issues," Modi tweeted. The fact that Trump found time to engage with Modi amid the troubles in the US suggests he is sure of overcoming the ongoing domestic crisis, and is even confident of a second term in office.

莫迪在推特上表示：“和我的朋友唐纳德·特朗普总统进行了一次温馨而富有成效的谈话。我们讨论了美国主持G7的计划、新冠疫情以及其他许多问题。”

German Chancellor Angela Merkel threw a spanner in the works saying she was not in a position to attend because of the pandemic situation and other leaders were also lukewarm about the gathering which brings together leaders of the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy and Japan.

德国总理安格拉·默克尔表示，由于疫情，她无法参加此次会议，其他国家领导人对此次会议也不冷不热。参加G7峰会的有美国、英国、加拿大、德国、法国、意大利和日本的领导人。

Trump wants to expand the grou to include India, South Korea, Australia, and possibly Russia. , the world’s second largest economy, is not a member, nor is Brazil, whose economy is larger than at least four of the current G7.

特朗普希望扩大该集团，邀请印度、韩国、澳大利亚，可能还有俄罗斯加入。是世界第二大经济体，但不是G7成员，巴西也不是。
