US Secretary of State Marco Rubio met with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi in New Delhi to discuss enhancing bilateral relations, particularly in trade and energy sectors. Rubio's visit, aimed at resetting ties strained by recent tariffs, included an invitation for Modi to visit the White House from President Donald Trump. During their discussions, Rubio highlighted the potential for US energy products to diversify India's energy supply, asserting that the US will not allow Iran to disrupt the global energy market. Modi echoed the importance of dialogue and diplomacy in resolving disputes, while both leaders reviewed progress on initiatives such as the 'Mission 500' to double trade by 2030. Additionally, they explored opportunities in defense, strategic technologies, and education. Rubio is scheduled to continue his visit with discussions with India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and visits to Agra and Jaipur before returning to Delhi for the Quad foreign ministers meeting.
