U.S. Vice President JD Vance said on Tuesday that the United States and India can collaborate across key areas like trade, defense, and energy to build a mutually beneficial partnership. He emphasized that President Donald Trump supports the growth of both nations.
Vance made these remarks during a largely personal four-day trip to India, speaking from the state of Rajasthan. His visit followed a meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi.
The trip also comes at a crucial time, as India is working to finalize a trade agreement with the U.S., its top trading partner before the 90-day pause on newly imposed U.S. tariffs expires.
