Biden Admin welcomes India's emergence as a leading global power





Describing India together as one of the foremost important partners of the US within the Indo-Pacific region, the Biden Administration on Tuesday said that it welcomes India's emergence as a number one global power and its role as a net security provider within the region.

"India is one among the foremost important partners within the Indo-Pacific region to us. We welcome India's emergence as a number one global power and its role as a net security provider within the region," State Department Spokesperson Ned Price told reporters at his daily press conference .

Earlier in the day, he said, Secretary of State Tony Blinken spoke with his Indian counterpart, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, for the second time in less than a fortnight. During the call, the two leaders reaffirm the strength of the US-India partnership and discussed issues of mutual concern, including the situation in Myanmar.

Blinken expressed concern over the military coup and the importance of rule of law and the democratic process in Myanmar.

They also discussed regional developments, including the value of US-India cooperation across the Indo-Pacific. "Both sides look forward to expanded regional cooperation, including through the Quad, and to address the challenges of COVID and climate change," Price said.
