U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan will visit India next week, for meetings with NSA Ajit Doval and other officials, as part of a number of high-level meetings ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the United States later this month, sources confirmed.
The visit by Mr. Sullivan, seen as one of U.S. President Joseph Biden’s key foreign policy point-persons, follows U.S. Defence Secretary Lloyd Austin’s visit to Delhi on Monday, and Foreign Secretary Vinay Kwatra’s visit to Washington on Tuesday, where he met with U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland. The two sides are expected to finalise the agenda for Mr. Modi’s visit on June 21-24, as well as key strategic and defence agreements they hope to sign or announce during the State visit.
