"In 2014 during my visit to the US, President Biden who was at the US State Department at the time defined India-US friendship as "A promise over the horizon." In the last nine years, we have taken a long and beautiful journey together in areas of defence, emerging technologies and trade. We are progressing as we work in the frameworks of Quad and I2U2. From the earth to the sky, from space to the depths of oceans, India and US can be seen working together," he said.
Notably, PM Modi became the first Indian leader to address the joint session of the US Congress twice on Thursday. He first addressed a joint meeting of the US Congress in 2016.
"The US-India partnership is stronger than ever. Together, our nations will shape the future as we work to create a more prosperous, secure, and healthy world. The partnership between the United States and India is one of the most important of the 21st century, and this visit will take our partnership to the next level — from space to defence, to emerging technology and supply chains," Harris' office tweeted on Thursday.
