U.S. Embassy India

This week in our Freedom 250 series: the moment that started it all and set the course for America’s enduring leadership. “With a single sheet of parchment and 56 signatures, America began the greatest political journey in human history.” - President Donald J. Trump #Freedom250

Reflecting on a powerful moment of shared vision and collaboration. 🇺🇸🇮🇳 “From our close cooperation on defense, energy, critical minerals, and emerging technologies to our multi-layered engagement through the Quad, the U.S.-India relationship delivers real results for our two countries and for the Indo-Pacific region.” - U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s Statement on India’s Republic Day January 26, 2026 #ThrowbackThursdays

What exactly is the Quad and why does it matter? From securing essential technologies to promoting resilient and reliable supply chains, the Quad is working towards building a prosperous Indo-Pacific that remains free and stable for decades to come.

The United States deeply appreciates our partnership with Indian law enforcement, which was instrumental in disrupting key elements of this criminal network distributing precursor chemicals to cartels that manufacture and traffic illegal drugs into the United States. home.treasury.gov/news/press-rel…

A fantastic evening with the Indian delegation ahead of the 2026 #SelectUSASummit! Proud to advance our goal to double U.S.-India bilateral trade to $500 billion by 2030. Through fair, balanced, and mutually beneficial trade, we’re attracting world-class investment to the United States and creating shared prosperity for both nations. @SelectUSA

From operational coordination to industrial cooperation, U.S.-India defense ties are reaching new heights! @PACAF Commander Gen. Kevin Schneider concluded a productive visit to India this week, reinforcing the strength and momentum of the U.S.-India Major Defense Partnership. Gen. Schneider engaged with senior Indian defense leadership, underscoring a shared commitment to enhancing interoperability and ensuring our forces remain aligned in support of a free and open Indo-Pacific. Key engagements included discussions at the Center for Aerospace Power and Strategic Studies and visits to Bengaluru’s premier aerospace and testing institutions, including the Aircraft and Systems Testing Establishment and the Indian National Flight Test Center, showcasing the depth of U.S.-India collaboration in next-generation capabilities and defense innovation.

Stronger U.S.-India pharma ties mean more resilient supply chains for our people. Great roundtable with U.S. industry leaders today on expanding their footprint here while advocating for fair deals. We’re ensuring our most innovative companies lead the way in a competitive global market. @EliLillyandCo @JNJNews @AbbottNews @pfizer @MSDInvents @abbvie @amgen @OrganonLLC @bmsnews @OPPIIndia

Always a pleasure to speak with @SenatorRisch to reaffirm our strong support for action to repeal the Jackson-Vanik amendment for key U.S. partners in Central Asia. As I work to deepen our C5+1 cooperation, removing this outdated law can unlock the immense potential for our economic ties with Central Asian nations and boost U.S. exports to this key region. Chairman Risch is doing a great job!

Strengthening U.S.-India partnership with @BestFutureGen Special Envoy Harder visit to India. By mobilizing U.S.-led public-private partnerships and co-investment models, we’re working on practical solutions that build human capital for long-term stability and growth.

Great discussion with @AmchamIndia Board to advance U.S.-India trade and investment ties. We are focused on a clear goal: taking U.S.-India trade to $500 billion by 2030. American companies operating in India are driving U.S. exports, expanding trade, attracting investment, and reinforcing the strength of our partnership.

On the one-year anniversary of the horrific attack in Pahalgam, we remember the innocent victims and honor their memory as we mourn with their families. The United States stands with the people of India in their fight against terrorism.

100 days in as U.S. Ambassador to India — and we’ve hit the ground running! From advancing a major U.S.-India trade deal, welcoming India into Pax Silica, strengthening defense cooperation, and engaging leaders across government and business — the momentum is undeniable. I also traveled to Washington to meet with President Trump, Vice President Vance, and Secretary Rubio to deepen this critical partnership. This is just the beginning. The United States and India aren’t just talking — we’re delivering results.

The Indian trade delegation will be arriving in Washington this week. A great step to finalize our bilateral trade deal. A win-win for both nations!

A very memorable afternoon at the City Palace! Thank you to Deputy CM @KumariDiya for the warm Rajasthani hospitality. Her commitment to preserving heritage while driving growth is truly inspiring.

Wonderful to host @kiranshaw at the Embassy today. We discussed the recent investments @Bioconlimited has made in the United States, Biocon’s participation at the 2026 #SelectUSASummit, and how our biopharma companies are partnering to create jobs and drive innovation.

Looking back at a moment of shared vision and partnership. 📷 “I believe that if India and the United States work together successfully, we are going to see a 21st century that is prosperous and peaceful.” - VP Vance during his visit to India in April 2025 #ThrowbackThursdays
