## Resource

India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi makes a historic first visit to New Zealand in four decades, timed with the passage of the first reading of a landmark Free Trade Agreement — just as Foreign Affairs Minister Winston Peters is overseas, sparking debate over his absence and past criticisms of the deal. While PM Christopher Luxon downplays Peters’ absence as routine and reciprocal, Peters’ office insists his travel was pre-planned and unrelated to Modi’s visit. Luxon also firmly rejects Peters’ public comments, calling out what he calls “immigration cosplay” and defending New Zealand’s fair immigration system.
