India discusses ways to advance bilateral strategic partnership with the US
Indian Ambassador to the US Vinay Mohan Kwatra has discussed ways to advance the bilateral strategic partnership with a senior US defence official.
Kwatra met US Under Secretary for Defence Elbridge Colby at the Pentagon on June 27 and discussed bilateral defence cooperation.
“A good conversation with Undersecretary Elbridge Colby at the Pentagon. Appreciate his steadfast support in advancing the India-US strategic partnership,” Kwatra said in a post on X.
“Look forward to continuing our engagements to implement the bilateral defence and defence industrial cooperation agenda,” Kwatra said.
In October last year, India and the US signed a 10-year defence cooperation agreement.
The pact seeks to expand joint operational coordination, intelligence sharing across space and cyberspace, and defence-industrial cooperation.
