US Vice President JD Vance will visit India this month as well as his two top officials — National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard and National Security Advisor Mike Waltz — sources said, bringing hope of strengthening ties in terms of security, trade and strategic ties.
JD Vance will arrive in Delhi later this month, while Tulsi Gabbard and Mike Waltz will be in India around March 15-18.
Mr Waltz is likely to participate in the Raisina Dialogue, one of India’s premier geopolitical summits.
“Both sides would expand their collaboration in multiple sectors, so the visits are going to be very significant for both,” said an official in charge of charting programmes for visiting dignitaries.
With India-US information sharing going up, it is expected that the visit of Ms Gabbard, the US Director of National Intelligence and NSA Waltz, the strategic partnership will deepen.
“The US has continuously been sharing intelligence on China and Pakistan with India. We hope that our bonds would deepen further,” an official said.
The US, he added, regularly shares inputs regarding ISKP and terror related groups as far as Pakistan is concerned. “In terms of China also, they share crucial information,” he added.
The visits gain in significance after the recent NATO meeting in Paris was held minus the US.
