Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to meet U.S. President Donald Trump next Wednesday on the sidelines of the upcoming G7 summit in France, according to the White House. The meeting comes as Trump is expected to discuss with allied nations a plan to remove mines from the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global oil route.

According to U.S. media reports, the United Kingdom and France have expressed willingness to help secure the strait if current hostilities subside. Trump recently claimed that a “great agreement” had been reached with Iran, which could end ongoing tensions once signed. He also announced that U.S. Vice President JD Vance may represent the United States in Europe during the discussions.

The Strait of Hormuz handles about 20 percent of global oil trade, and disruptions have driven up crude prices. While many countries have passed higher energy costs to consumers, India has maintained stable domestic fuel prices, remaining the only major economy not to raise prices during the first 76 days of the crisis.
