India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized on Thursday that his country supports a safe and sustainable space domain rooted in international law. Speaking virtually at the International Space Summit held in Paris, Modi stressed that while the potential of space is limitless, the collective responsibility to utilize it wisely is paramount.
Inviting France and other nations to be "co-travellers" in India's next-generation space research, Modi's remarks underscored India's commitment to international cooperation as countries push their ambitions beyond Earth.
Addressing the summit via video conference, Modi highlighted how India's space endeavors align with its philosophy of "Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam," meaning "One Earth, One Family, One Future." He stressed that scientific data must serve a common goal with openness and integrity. "The technology and partnerships developed by ISRO (Indian Space Research Organisation) serve not only India but also the wider world," Modi noted, highlighting India's efforts to make its space capabilities globally relevant.
Modi's message at the summit brought together two core themes of India's space approach: fostering the next generation of research through international partnerships while ensuring that the increasing use of space remains safe, sustainable, and in line with international law.
