United States President Donald Trump’s visit to India is the most striking event that has taken place in the country in the recent history.
It is his maiden visit to India. His wife, Melania Trump, has accompanied him during his visit to the world’s largest democracy.
The couple have received an exceptional welcome. They have been received by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi himself.
Mr. Trump has been offered a rare opportunity to address a large crowd in Gujarat, the home state of Indian Prime Minister.
Beyond the glamour of this extravagance lies the actual content of this crucial visit. India has inked several agreements, including the Logistics Exchange Memorandum of Agreement and the Communications Compatibility and Security Agreement, with the United States.
Both countries have agreed to improve their cooperation on defence, healthcare, and energy. The $3 billion defence deal in connection with the sale of Apache and MH-60 Romeo helicopters, reflects the new approach. The decision to increase India’s LNG import from the United States is another indicator.
As expected, the two countries have decided to build up closer cooperation to fight terrorism. At the same time, India has politely refused the US’s offer to mediate in the Kashmir crisis.
The US’s readiness to support India to emerge as a top player in the Asian region is not without reason. That approach is needed to be viewed in light of the world’s most powerful country’s renewed stand towards China. The communist country’s progression from an unfriendly partner to a strategic opponent or a revisionist alternative alters the entire scenario. At a time, it is both an opportunity as well as a threat to India.
