New Delhi is confident that the Indo-US relationship will grow from strength to strength under President Trump’s leadership, given his equation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Mr Jaishankar had visited the US last month also and met key officials in the outgoing Joe Biden administration apart from holding talks with some key aides of Mr Trump. The Indian minister has already stated that Mr Trump has had a positive political view of India and the country is in a much more advantageous position than many other nations to build “deeper” relations with the incoming administration in Washington and take bilateral ties forward.
