India and Australia firmed up an important agreement on nuclear energy and defence cooperation during Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to the Oceanic country. Speaking at a joint press conference with his Australian counterpart, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, the leaders announced a series of deals and treaties between New Delhi and Canberra, including one focusing on uranium supply.
“Agreement on nuclear energy will facilitate the supply of uranium from Australia to India,” said Modi during the joint press conference, after Albanese announced the signing of the arrangement to enable uranium exports to India under the 2015 Australia- India Nuclear Cooperation Agreement.
