The 20th SAARC summit is the 20th meeting of the heads of state or heads of government of the eight SAARC countries after their previous meeting in Pakistan was boycotted by all SAARC MEMBERS.[1] The Summit will take place in 2018.

Pakistan is aggressively seeking support from smaller South Asian nations to host the Saarc summit in Islamabad. Sri Lanka and Nepal have already shown support, but analysts doubt India will agree as it holds Pakistan responsible for numerous terrorist activities in its homeland.[2]
