Earlier, Prime Minister Narendra Modi met South Korean President Lee Jae-myung on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Evian, France. During the meeting, PM Modi recalled the South Korean President’s visit to India and expressed optimism on strengthening ties across emerging sectors.
South Korean President Lee Jae-myung visited India earlier in April, where the leaders agreed on the Joint Strategic Vision for implementing and adding further content to the India-ROK Special Strategic Partnership in the next five years (2026-2030).
On the other hand, Mongolian President Khurelsukh Ukhnaa arrived in New Delhi in October last year for a four-day state visit. The President met Prime Minister Modi and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar to discuss the next decade of cooperation.
Following the meeting, India stated that the Mongolian oil refinery, its largest Line of Credit (LoC)-backed infrastructure project, is expected to be operational by 2028. The refinery, funded by a $1.7 billion Line of Credit from India, is a major milestone in the bilateral partnership and a key project for Mongolia’s quest for energy independence.
