United States on Thursday said that irrespective of the nature of coalition of the government that would soon take charge in India, President Joe Biden will continue to work with Prime Minister Narendra Modi on a priority basis.
“…In terms of the prime minister’s-coalition in the different governments, those are all choices for the Indian people to make and we respect the will of the Indian people. I will say that we will look to continue our work with Prime Minister Modi, as you’ve seen President Joe Biden undertake since he took office. That will continue to be a priority through the issues…,” said US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller.
The US State Department spokesperson said that the United States would continue to look to expand its partnership with India particularly on the economic front and will heighten efforts to deepen people-to-people ties between the two countries. He also stressed upon the need for increased cooperation with India towards achieving a free, secure and prosperous Indo-Pacific emphasising that these would remain priorities for the US.
The BJP, to which Prime Minister Modi belongs, failed to secure an absolute majority on its own and will now have to form the next government with the help of coalition partners Chandrababu Naidu’s TDP and Nitish Kumar’s JD(U). While running a coalition government won’t be as easy as the last two governments he headed, but a coalition government is nothing new in India.
