US secretary Rubio invites India, 60 nations to summit on 'far-left terrorism''Rise of far-left terrorism': Marco Rubio rallies over 60 nations to confront Antifa threat

US Secretary of State Marco Rubio has invited senior ministers from over 60 countries, including India, to a summit at the State Department on July 16 to address the Trump administration's claim of a resurgence in transnational far-left terrorism.

The meeting will focus on intelligence sharing and law enforcement cooperation against groups the administration labels as politically motivated far-left extremists. This gathering matters as it signals a potential shift in US foreign policy to prioritize domestic ideological concerns on the global stage.

  • Marco Rubio, a Florida senator, previously served as chairman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence.
  • The term 'Antifa' refers to anti-fascist activists, though the US administration now links it to far-left terrorism.
  • The State Department in Washington, D.C., has hosted over 150 international summits since 2010.
