UN Chief Guterres: India is the 'right place' for global AI reset

• UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres believes India is the 'right place' to host the India–AI Impact Summit 2026.
• Guterres emphasized that AI must serve the entire world, not just a few powerful nations, and strongly endorsed India's leadership in convening the first-ever AI summit in the Global South.
• The Summit, scheduled from February 16 to 20, is anchored in 'People, Planet and Progress' and will gather world leaders, policymakers, and technology executives.
• Guterres highlighted India's role as a 'very successful emerging economy' with growing influence in global affairs, making it ideal for the Summit.
• He advocated for a multipolar global order, stressing the need to avoid hegemony by one power or a binary division between two superpowers, and called for reform of the UN Security Council.
