NEW DELHI:
Jaishankar began a six-day visit to the US on Tuesday, the first by a senior Indian functionary since Donald Trump won the presidential election in November. He is also expected to meet members of Trump's transition team, people familiar with the matter said on condition of anonymity.
Besides his meetings with the two key members of the outgoing Joe Biden administration, Jaishankar met with India's consul generals from the consulates in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Seattle, Houston and Atlanta on Friday to discuss ways to strengthen the bilateral partnership.
"Good to meet US NSA @JakeSullivan46 in Washington DC this morning. A wide ranging discussion on the progress of [India-US] strategic partnership. Also exchanged views on current regional and global developments," Jaishankar said on X about his meeting with the US NSA on Friday.
In a separate post on X about his meeting with Blinken on Thursday, Jaishankar said: "Reviewed the advancement of [India-US] partnership over the last four years. Agreed that our cooperation has strengthened in many domains, just as our comfort levels have grown correspondingly. Confident that India-US relationship will serve our mutual interests as well as global good."
There were no official readouts on the meetings.
