Amidst ongoing tensions with the United States, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar is scheduled to meet with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio today. This meeting will take place in New York on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly session. The high-level meeting is expected to focus on advancing and improving India-US relations.
Sources familiar with the meeting suggest that the discussion is part of an effort to enhance ties between the two countries and bridge the gaps that have emerged in recent months. Previous meetings between Rubio and Jaishankar occurred in Washington in July and earlier this year in January. This marks the first encounter since the Trump administration imposed tariffs.
