Heads of intelligence from 20 countries are planning to meet on March 16 at a security summit to be held in New Delhi this weekend. Participants will discuss global security issues, including the Russian-Ukrainian war and the conflict in the Middle East, according to Mint, writes UNN.
In addition to the above, meeting participants will discuss ways to strengthen intelligence sharing to combat terrorism and transnational crime.
The meeting will be attended by the Director of National Intelligence of the United States, Tulsi Gabbard, the head of Canadian intelligence, Daniel Rogers, and the head of the British MI-6, Richard Moore. Other participants include the heads of intelligence of Australia, Germany and New Zealand. The meeting will be chaired by India's National Security Advisor (NSA) Ajit Doval.
The Secretariat of the National Security Council of the country first organized this security summit in 2022. This year it will be held on March 16, the day before the Raisina Dialogue, an annual conference on geopolitics and geoeconomics.
It is worth noting that Gabbard's visit will be the first high-level trip to India by a senior official of the Donald Trump administration. Last month, Gabbard met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his visit to Washington.
This is also Gabbard's second foreign trip since she became the head of US National Intelligence.
