India-Sweden relations: Trajectory of strategic convergence

India-Sweden relations: Trajectory of strategic convergence scaling new heights


The bilateral relations between India and Sweden has been witnessing momentous upswing in recent years on multifarious dimensions. With the diplomatic ties between New Delhi and Stockholm already established in 1949, what is critically significant is the metamorphosis of strategic convergence in recent times that has resulted in robust cooperation of the two countries in various regional and international fora. The foundation of such strong partnership and longstanding cordiality between the two countries are based on shared values of democracy, rule of law, pluralism, institutional affinity, equality, freedom of speech, and respect for human rights.
The historic visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Sweden in 2018, the first of its kind after nearly three decades, has been a turning point in taking the bilateral relationship to the next stage while expanding and strengthening the contours of strategic cooperation like never before. The virtual summit recently held on March 2021 between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Swedish counterpart Stefan Lofven has enhanced the momentum like never before towards further consolidation of strategic convergence between the two countries on issues related to defence, counterterrorism, peace and security, climate change, science and technology, start-up innovation, medical innovation, and industry integration. With around 250 Swedish companies actively operating in India in various sectors like defence, heavy machinery and equipment, health and life sciences, clean technology, and auto industry in conjunction with simultaneously, around 75 Indian companies also fully active in Sweden, the foundations for robust strategic cooperation between New Delhi and Stockholm is deeply ingrained.
