Indispensable partners
29/08/2016
Confident of further advancement of partnership between India and the US, a top official of the Obama administration said every future US government should continue with the joint strategic vision of the two countries being “indispensable partners in promoting peace, prosperity and stability in the region”.
The US-India partnership has never been stronger but the two countries still need to do much better given the size of their economies.
With President (Barack) Obama’s visit to India during India’s Republic Day celebration and Prime Minister (Narendra) Modi’s visit to the White House last June and historic address in Congress, it’s easy to see the strong friendship between two countries.
“Over the past seven-and-a-half years, their cooperation has strengthened in every field – from developing life-saving solutions for infectious diseases to strengthening humanitarian and disaster relief.
The leadership from both the countries has helped galvanise global action to support clean energy solutions and combat climate change, including the historic Paris Agreement.
The conversations this week will include government-to-government discussions, as well as opportunities to hear from business people and entrepreneurs who rely on good government policies.
The work done by the two governments and their businesses together is helping to create better opportunities for cities and rural communities and it increasingly has global benefits.
In addition to government-to- government work on the frame of bilateral trade and investment, increasing US-India business-to-business ties remains one of the highest priorities.
