If elected, will stand with India in confronting threats facing it: Joe Biden
The HinduDemocratic presidential nominee Joe Biden asserted that if elected, his administration will stand with New Delhi in confronting the threats it faces and called for strengthening the “bond” between India and the U.S. Presidential elections in the U.S. will be held on November 3 and the 77-year-old is challenging incumbent Republican President Donald Trump in the polls. I said that if the U.S. and India became closer friends and partners, then the world will be a safer place,” Biden, who was vice-president in the Obama administration, said while addressing the Indian-American community on India’s Independence Day. If elected president, Biden said, he will continue to believe this and also continue to stand with India against the threats it faces from its own region and along its borders. He said that “as President, I’ll also continue to rely on the Indian-American diaspora, that keeps our two nations together, as I have throughout my career.My constituents in Delaware, my staff in the Senate, the Obama administration that had more Indian-Americans than any other administration in the history of this country, and this campaign with Indian Americans at senior levels, which of course includes the top of the heap, our dear friend who will be the first Indian American vice president in the history of the United States of America, Biden said.
