Xinhua, April 4, 2016 Adjust font size:

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi returned home early Monday morning after a three-nation tour of Belgium, the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.

His first stop was Brussels where he took part in the India-EU Summit and held talks with Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel on March 30.

From Belgium, Modi flew to the U.S. where he attended the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington, along with U.S. President Barack Obama and other world leaders, on March 31 and April 1.

During the last leg of his tour, the Indian prime minister went to Riyadh and held wide-ranging talks with Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, while both countries signed several pacts.

"Thank you Saudi Arabia. Joined several programs during my visit, which will deepen economic & people-to-people ties between our nations," Modi tweeted Sunday night before departing from Riyadh. Endit
