Robust US-India dosti in Trump rule |
US ambassador to India Richard Verma said his country’s ties with India enjoy bipartisan support and Donald Trump’s presidency could bring in another four years of “robust US-India Dosti”. Verma said ties that bind the two countries together are built on “shared democratic values,” and go beyond the “friendship of the American President and the Indian Prime Minister.”The envoy was addressing a gathering assembled on the embassy campus as the United States elected Donald Trump as its 45th president. Last week, Trump called India a “key strategic” and “natural” ally, and promised Indian Americans that he would take bilateral ties to a new high if made US president, and even boost intelligence sharing in the fight against terrorism.“No relationship will be more important” and the two countries will be “best friends”, he told a gathering of the Indian diaspora at an event sponsored by the Republican Hindu Coalition (RHC) to raise money for victims of terrorism.
