During his visit, Sullivan and Doval engaged in discussions on bilateral, regional, and global issues of mutual interest.

A key agenda item includes the first annual review of iCET, where inter-departmental delegations from both countries will assess progress and strategize future priorities and deliverables.

Additionally, Sullivan met with External Affairs Minister Dr. S Jaishankar to discuss further strengthening diplomatic ties.

As per reports, he will meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss broader strategic issues and opportunities for enhanced cooperation between the two nations.

Tomorrow, Sullivan will participate in an India-US iCET Roundtable with Industry CEOs organized by the Confederation of Indian Industry, aimed at fostering collaboration between private sector leaders from both countries.

The ongoing visit reflects the robust and multi-faceted nature of the India-US relationship, highlighting the strategic importance of bilateral cooperation in navigating global challenges and advancing shared interests.
