During a Congressional hearing, Secretary of State Tony Blinken said US is working to make sure that the country is a leading international actor in creating greater access to vaccines.
This suggestion has been made in a letter from US Secretary of State Antony Blinken to Afghan President Ashraf Ghani, accessed exclusively by private Afghan broadcaster TOLO News.
Blinken reiterated Biden administration's policy of engaging Beijing from a position of strength, and putting human rights and democracy back at the center of US foreign policy.
The India-US partnership has been on a steady upward trajectory in recent years and enjoys strong bipartisan support, India's Ambassador to the US Taranjit Singh Sandhu said.
Blinken said after Iran returns to the agreement the US would seek to build a 'longer and stronger' accord to address what he called 'deeply problematic' issues.
Incoming US Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken said US and India will deepen their cooperation 'to pursue the path that successive administrations have put us on'.
Blinken's remarks show he intends to draw the curtain on 4 years of 'America First,' in which Trump browbeat the NATO alliance and slammed staunch allies such as Germany and France.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
The Chinese are said to have hired ex-fighter pilots & air force operators from NATO countries over the past several years to help them fine-tune their operational & flying capabilities.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
