Defence Minister Rajnath Singh expressed satisfaction on talks with US Defense Secretary Lloyd James Austin III during a joint statement on March 20.
"I am happy to say that we had comprehensive and fruitful talks with Secretary Austin and his delegation," said Minister Singh.
"We're determined to realise full potential of comprehensive global strategic partnership.
Talks focussed on wide-ranging defence cooperation, expanding military to military engagement, info sharing and cooperation in emerging areas of defence and mutual logistics support," added Defence Minister.
The U.S. ramps up its military presence in the Middle East with the deployment of ballistic missile destroyers and B-52 bombers, as tensions rise following Iranian threats against Israel. Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin has ordered these strategic assets to enhance deterrence and protect American personnel and allies in the region. This deployment coincides with reports of Iran potentially preparing to launch strikes against Israel, heightening concerns ahead of the U.S. presidential election. As the conflict escalates, including Israel's ongoing military operations in Gaza and Lebanon, the U.S. reaffirms its commitment to regional stability and defense.
