The relationship between India and the United States today has an impact on the rest of the world, according to External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar. Describing further, he said that this is because many nations look to the association both individually and bilaterally in the hopes of finding the solutions that the world is seeking in numerous areas.
During a press briefing on Wednesday, Jaishankar asserted, “I think our relationship today impacts the rest of the world. There are a lot of countries which look to us individually and bilaterally for some part of the betterment which they hope for solutions which the world is searching for in many respects,” ANI reported.
EAM Jaishankar also emphasised the US trip as a comfortable one and stated that he had some really good meetings with the US Ministers, defining the bilateral dialogues between the two nations as robust, friendly, and fruitful.
Notably, Jaishankar was visiting the US for ten days to have bilateral engagements with many members of the US cabinet, including Gina Raimondo, the secretary of commerce.

Both countries know how to make space for one another and work’: Jaishankar
Furthermore, in a statement during the briefing, Jaishankar said, “That’s the sort of broad sense that I want to give you of a very solid, positive, productive bilateral conversation but framed in the context of larger global challenges where there was a very high degree of convergence on how we look at those challenges, we may articulate it a bit differently as we are oppositions and our priorities at some times will be different,” ANI reported.
