PM-VISIT 3 LST

The strategic dialogue is based on five pillars,
including strategic co-operation, energy and climate change,
economics and trade, education and science and technology.

However, the administration refrains from making any
comparison of this State Visit with the one during former
President George W Bush's tenure in 2005.

Given that the relationship between the two countries
have "really matured" since 2005 and since then there has been
convergence of the Indo-US interest in the region and the
world, officials now consider this as a much more broad based
and solid partnership.
"What would be symbolic is the highlighting of the fact
that the fundamentals that brought us together, originally
still exit. This relationship is just not the legacy of one
administration, or one president, it is the legacy that
emerges from the people of both countries," the official said.
