Sri Lanka’s economic crisis and pressing global challenges such as food security and climate change figured prominently in visiting U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) Administrator Samantha Power’s talks with her Indian interlocutors.
The USAID said Ms. Power met with civil society representatives in Delhi on July 26 to discuss freedom of expression, speech, identity, and the importance of protecting the rights of minority groups.
“The Administrator underscored the United States’ continued commitment to work with civil society organisations around the globe to advance human rights and fundamental freedoms,” acting spokesperson of USAID Shejal Pulivarti said.
