The United States announced that it had reached a deal with India to resolve the last remaining trade conflict between the two countries – at the same time as Joe Biden met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday as part of the G20.
White House Trade Representative Katherine Tai said in a statement that the deal “represents an important milestone” in trade relations between Washington and New Delhi.
Not a shadow of a monkey, not even a stray dog. At red lights, the beggars disappear and the slums are disguised behind giant signs. With the smell of fresh paint, the heart of the Indian capital becomes more beautiful than ever. The newly paved artery is lined with flags and greenery. Decorated bridges, swept streets. From elegant power districts to embassies, from illuminated monuments to shady streets, New Delhi shines. Because India’s prestige is at stake through the G20 summit that will take place this weekend: Indian authorities have spent more than 460 million euros to make its capital shine in the eyes of the richest countries on the planet. It was rare for them to accommodate so many heads of state on the continent.
The tempo is perfect for Modi
