U.S. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan had a meeting with his Indian counterpart Ajit K. Doval in Saudi Arabia on May 7, the White House said, adding that the two leaders are scheduled to meet again in Australia later this month on the sidelines of the Quad Summit.
This is the first meeting between Mr. Doval and Mr. Sullivan after they launched the ambitious India-U.S. ICET (Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technology) dialogue here in January. Mr. Sullivan is currently travelling to Saudi Arabia.
"National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan met with Saudi Prime Minister and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, U.A.E. National Security Advisor Sheikh Tahnoon bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and National Security Advisor of India Ajit Doval on May 7 in Saudi Arabia to advance their shared vision of a more secure and prosperous Middle East region interconnected with India and the world," the White House said May 7 in a readout of the meeting.
