According to Sullivan, Biden will urge Modi to support sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasising India’s potential role in addressing Russia's invasion of Ukraine. "I won't go too deep into the details of what he will say on those issues which are obviously sensitive and will be critical priorities in the bilateral meeting," Sullivan said, as quoted by news agency ANI.</p> <p>He added, "The United States has been clear about our view that Russia's brutal war of aggression against Ukraine flouted every norm and principle of international law. Countries like India should step up and support the principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity, and that every country everywhere should refrain from supplying inputs to Russia's war machine."</p> <p>Sullivan also mentioned that Biden would seek PM Modi’s input on his recent visit to Ukraine, calling it a "historic trip." The leaders are expected to explore paths towards peace between the two warring nations. Additionally, the meeting will address China's actions in the region, covering security, technology, and economic issues. "The President will also hear from Prime Minister Modi about his trip to Ukraine... It will be an opportunity for the two of them to talk about their respective views on the way forward," Sullivan said.</p> <p>Responding to concerns over China being the focus of the Quad discussions, Sullivan clarified, "The purpose of the Quad is not to come together around China or any other country. It's to come together around how to construct a free and open Indo-Pacific." He stressed that while China's actions will be discussed, the Quad’s aim is broader, focusing on the larger vision of maintaining stability in the Indo-Pacific.</p> <p>US President Biden, in a post on X, welcomed the Quad leaders to his hometown, saying, "Today, I’ll welcome Prime Ministers Albanese, Modi, and Kishida to my home: Delaware. These leaders aren't just essential to ensuring a free and open Indo-Pacific – they’re friends of mine and friends of our nation. I look forward to all we’ll accomplish in the Summit ahead."</p> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p dir="ltr" lang="en">Today, I'll welcome Prime Ministers Albanese, Modi, and Kishida to my home: Delaware.<br /><br />These leaders aren't just essential to ensuring a free and open Indo-Pacific – they're friends of mine and friends of our nation.<br /><br />I look forward to all we'll accomplish in the Summit ahead.</p> — President Biden (@POTUS) <a href="https://twitter.com/POTUS/status/1837491978780455279?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">September 21, 2024</a></blockquote> <p> <script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script> </p> <p>Following the Quad Summit, PM Modi will travel to New York to attend an event with the Indian community at Long Island on 22 September.
