US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti met Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Tuesday as they discussed deepening of ties between the two countries.
In a post on X after the meeting, Mr Kharge said India and the United States enjoy a comprehensive global strategic partnership covering almost all areas of human endeavour, driven by shared democratic values.
“Delighted to meet Ambassador of the US to India, HE Mr. Eric Garcetti, Minister-Counselor of Political Affairs, Mr. Graham Mayer and Chief of Staff, Ms. Lisa Brown and discussed deepening of ties between the two countries,” the Congress chief said.
The US Ambassador met Mr Kharge at the latter’s residence here.
Earlier, lauding the bilateral relationship between the two nations, US Ambassador to India Eric Garcetti last week said that Americans and Indians feel similarly as people of both countries are aligned as they look at the world.
Speaking at the Annual IC3 Conference and Expo 2024 in Delhi, Garcetti said, “What are the things we are trying to accomplish in the US-India relationship. We know that Americans and Indians feel similarly, I think our hearts are very aligned…Our heads are aligned as we look at the world, understanding that an open and free Indo-Pacific is better than something that doesn’t have freedom, doesn’t have democracy, doesn’t celebrate people’s rights…”
Garcetti said that the power of US-India collaboration is unprecedented.
