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.
The last time this matter flared up was when Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, in a very similar directive in April, called for the relocation of stray dogs in the capital.
Finance ministry says the proposed revamp will focus on structural reforms, rate rationalisation & ease of living, & will be deliberated upon in the coming weeks.
The project is meant to be a ‘protective shield that will keep expanding’, the PM said. It is on the lines of the ‘Golden Dome’ announced by Trump, it is learnt.
Now that both IAF and PAF have made formal claims of having shot down the other’s aircraft in the 87-hour war in May, we can ask a larger question: do such numbers really matter?
