U.S. partnering with India to enable it play 'broader stabilising role' in Indo-Pacific: senior Pentagon official

The Hindu  

The U.S. wants to make sure that it is partnering with India in its defence modernisation plans and to better enable it to play a "broader stabilising role" in the strategic Indo-Pacific region, according to a senior Pentagon official. “As India is taking a look at how it accelerates its own defence modernisation, in order to expand the role that it already plays as what I would describe as a net security provider in the Indian Ocean region, but more broadly in the Indo-Pacific, the United States wants to make sure that we are partnering with India to better enable it to play that broader stabilising role in the region,” the senior defence official told PTI on October 29. “Agreeing to those bilateral defence space and AI dialogues that we'll be having together, we see all of that work is really supporting the broader effort that the White House is leading on the U.S.-India work on critical and emerging technologies,” the official said. "In many cases, we're very pleased that the track record of defence trade and sales between the United States and India has been really solid over the last couple of decades,” the official said.
