President Biden shakes hands with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi after announcing a new corridor to link India to the Middle East and Europe.
It was one of several ways that Biden is seeking to counter the inroads China has made around the world through its Belt and Road Initiative and other development financing. At the G20, the United States and Europe also Images of Modi's state visit to Washington in June graced a giant video billboard near the airport where Air Force One landed, and G20 posters featuring Modi were plastered around the capital. Modi declared a three-day public holiday for the G20, and the streets around the summit were bare, with the public kept far from the events.Leaders from China, the world's second-largest economy, and Russia — a long-time partner of India — opted not to attend.
Journalists have also been tightly restricted from events, drawing attention to India's track record on press freedom, and highlighting a challenge for Biden as he tries to develop a closer relationship with leaders who don't fully embrace human rights."My experience is that the president is direct, open and does not shy from hard challenges.
