"The United States' partnership with India is stronger, closer, and more dynamic than any time in history. Prime Minister Modi, each time we sit down, I'm struck by our ability to find new areas of cooperation. Today was no different," Biden said.

Both leaders also discussed defence and security cooperation even as Washington is pushing New Delhi to give its green signal to some of the big-ticket deals owing to purchase of 31 MQ-9B drones (16 Sky Guardian and 15 Sea Guardian) for all the three armed forces of India and also GE-F414 fighter jet engines deal.
