Modi lands in NorwayModi lands in Norway for trade and tech talks
Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Oslo on May 18, 2026, for talks with Norwegian leaders on trade, technology, energy and other key sectors.
The visit is the first bilateral trip by an Indian prime minister to Norway and comes as both sides look to deepen cooperation on fuel supplies and broader economic ties.
It matters because the talks could shape India’s energy security and its ties with Northern Europe.
- Norway manages one of the world’s largest sovereign wealth funds, built from oil and gas revenues.
- The Nordic countries often coordinate closely on climate and innovation policy.
- India and Norway have long cooperated on development, maritime affairs, and ocean science.
