Modi during his visits abroad has emphasised on the need to have a global coalition to fight terrorism. While expressing solidarity with the people of Brussels, Modi will emphasise on this point yet again. For Belgium, the ISIS has been a nightmare and there are at least 250 of its nationals fighting alongside the outfit.

Counter terrorism high on the agenda:

Modi has a packed schedule in Belgium in which he would meet with the PM of the country Charles Michel and also heads of the European Union. During these meetings Modi will speak about the need for greater cooperation in combating international terrorism.

The Indian PM would also emphasise on the fact that there is a need to greater sharing of intelligence. The ISIS which operates globally needs to be watched by every intelligence agency in the world and unless the world cooperates, the going would get tough against this fanatic outfit.
