Modi Meets with U.S. Intellectuals and Business Leaders, Including ‘Fan’ Elon Musk
< < Go Back
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi told the Wall Street Journal in an interview published prior to his departure to the United States on Monday that his visit will focus on elevating his country to a “much higher, deeper, and wider profile,” both as a partner to America and in international venues such as the United Nations.
Modi is expected to arrive in America on Wednesday. He is scheduled to arrive in New York initially to lead a yoga session at the United Nations, then depart to Washington where he will engage in extensive meetings with leftist President Joe Biden and senior American leaders, chat with technology and other corporate leaders, and serve as the guest of honor at a White House state dinner.
As the West squares off against Moscow and, increasingly, China, New Delhi stands to gain. Washington has courted India hoping that it will be a strategic counterweight to Beijing. The U.S. has moved to deepen defense ties even as New Delhi makes large purchases of Russian oil at discounted prices, providing financial support for Moscow as it wages war in Ukraine.
