Working together to combat terrorism
27/03/2017
India and the US have agreed to chalk out a joint strategy as partners to combat the “full spectrum” of terror threats as the National Security Advisors of the two countries met.
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval met his American counterpart Lt Gen H R McMaster and discussed a range of issues to "identify opportunities to set a course" for India and the US, Michel Anton, Spokesman of the National Security Council. They committed to work together as partners to combat the full spectrum of terrorist threats, affirming that both great democracies stand together in the fight against terrorism.
Last year, the US declared India a major defence partner. The US and India last year also signed a bilateral Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement (LEMOA) that will give the militaries of the two countries access to each other's facilities for supplies and repairs. LEMOA is said to be one of the four 'foundational agreements' that the US enters into with its defence partners.
