What's behind this
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said the China border has become “more alive”, noting that India has significantly strengthened its infrastructure and military preparedness along the frontier over the past decade, and that tariff issues in the India‑US trade negotiations have been painstakingly resolved, bringing the deal close to the finish line. Former US Secretary of State Antony Blinken urged Washington to respect India’s right to defend itself, maintain a zero‑tolerance policy on terrorism, and described the India‑US partnership as an essential pillar of the new century, while stressing that the US should not expect India to simply follow its lead and that it understands India’s longstanding ties with Russia.
