New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has received an invitation to attend a peace summit in Sharm-el-Sheikh, which is expected to discuss an end to the violence in the Gaza Strip and bring stability to the Middle East, according to a media report.

Sources told The Indian Express that the invitation came at the last minute on Saturday from US President Donald Trump, and Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.

The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) is yet to confirm if Modi will attend the summit.

The summit will be jointly chaired by Trump and Sisi on Monday afternoon and is likely to be attended by over 20 countries, the report quoted a spokesperson for the Egyptian Presidency.

“The summit aims to end the war in Gaza, strengthen efforts to establish peace and stability in the Middle East, and open a new chapter of regional security,” the statement said.

It noted that the summit is part of Trump’s vision to achieve peace in the region while demonstrating his constant endeavour to resolve global conflicts.

“This summit comes in light of US President Donald Trump’s vision to achieve peace in the region, and his relentless quest to end conflicts around the world,” the spokesperson further added, according to the report.
