Vice President Vance’s visit is crucial as all relevant issues between India and the United States will be discussed during his stay in India, which may further strengthen bilateral ties, said Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) spokesperson, Randhir Jaiswal.
During the weekly media briefing last Thursday, when asked about the possibility of tariff discussions, Jaiswal said, “We have a comprehensive strategic global partnership. When you have that level of partnership with any country, you obviously discuss all relevant issues.”
“We are talking to the US side so that a bilateral trade agreement can be done,” he said. Earlier, JD Vance and his family concluded their three-day visit to Italy, where he held bilateral meetings and attended religious services during the Easter weekend.
