India will host the 2025 Quad Summit, welcoming a newly-elected President Donald Trump to represent the United States. The decision to hold the summit in New Delhi follows a scheduling reshuffle this year, which saw the 2024 Quad Summit relocated to New York.

“When we were planning for this year’s Quad Summit, India was scheduled to host,” said Mira Rapp-Hooper, Senior Director for East Asia and Oceania at the National Security Council. “But as we looked at all four of these leaders’ schedules, it became increasingly clear that the best way to make sure they met and had the time they wanted for these discussions would be here in the U.S.,” she explained.

India’s Ministry of External Affairs confirmed the new arrangement, stating, “Following the request of the U.S. side to host the Quad Summit this year, India has agreed to host the next Quad Summit in 2025.”

The 2024 gathering brought Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to New York, where he met outgoing U.S. President Joe Biden, Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida. With Trump now poised to join the 2025 summit, India’s role as host underscores its growing influence within the Quad’s strategic dialogues.
