External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is set to hold talks with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio today, during a meeting in New York. The discussions, taking place on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, are aimed at strengthening the India-US relationship. Key issues like trade and visas are expected to be on the agenda.
The meeting is seen as a continuation of efforts to improve relations and address recent disagreements. This meeting is the first since the imposition of tariffs by the Trump administration. The two leaders previously met in Washington in July, and in January of this year.
