Look forward to building on momentum of India-US ties: PM Modi to outgoing US NSA

New Delhi, Jan 6 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday met with outgoing US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan and said the India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership has scaled new heights in several fields.
In a post on X, the PM said that he looks forward to building upon this momentum in the ties between the two democracies, with the Donald Trump administration set to take office on January 20.
“It was a pleasure to meet the US National Security Advisor @JakeSullivan46.
“The India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership has scaled new heights, including in the areas of technology, defence, space, biotechnology and Artificial Intelligence.
“Look forward to building upon this momentum in ties between our two democracies for the benefit of our people and global good.”
Earlier, the US NSA Sullivan held talks with his Indian counterpart Ajit Doval during which they discussed a range of issues spanning the bilateral partnership.
He also met with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar during which they discussed deepening the bilateral ties.
EAM also expressed appreciation for the US NSA’s personal contribution to forging closer ties.
In a post on X, the EAM posted:
“Delighted to meet US NSA @JakeSullivan46 in New Delhi today morning.
“Continued our ongoing discussions on deepening bilateral, regional and global cooperation.
“Valued the openness of our conversations in the last four years. Appreciated his personal contribution to forging a closer and stronger India-US partnership.”
EAM had met with the outgoing US NSA in Washington late last month too.
Earlier, the White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby, announcing the visit last Friday, said the two NSAs will discuss “a range of issues across the breadth of our partnership with India, from space, defense, strategic technology cooperation, all the way also to shared security priorities in the Indo-Pacific and beyond”.
