Best in US-India ties is yet to come: US VP Mike Pence

TIL Desk/World/Washington/ Asserting that the United States-India relationship is grounded in shared values, US Vice President Mike Pence on Monday said that the ties between the two largest democracies have grown dramatically in the last 20 years, but the best is yet to come.

Speaking at an interactive session at the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum, Pence said that it is a relationship that is founded on the shared values, a commitment of the two of the world’s largest democracies to economic freedom and exchange.

“While the relationship (between India and the US) has grown dramatically over the last 20 years, we think the best is yet to come,” he said in a virtual fire side chat from the White House in a conversation with John Chambers, former executive chairman and CEO of Cisco Systems, during the third India-US Leadership Summit organised by the USISPF.
