Modi in The Hague warns decade of disasters could erase global progress, pushing India Netherlands supply chain pact

He says global gains could be washed away fast

Speaking in The Hague during his five-nation tour, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India and the Netherlands are building a “trusted, transparent and future-ready” supply chain to withstand repeated global shocks. He framed the current era as a “decade of disasters,” pointing to the COVID-19 pandemic, escalating wars and an emerging energy crisis. Modi warned that if countries fail to respond quickly, decades of development gains could be wiped out, driving large populations into poverty.
