While officials said the visit to the US Vice President would coincide with the planned visit to the US National Security Advisor Mike Waltz, Mr. Vance’s schedule should be “largely private”. Mr. Vance is expected to call Mr. Modi, who will host dinner for the Vance family in Delhi. Vances are about to travel to Jaipur and Agra, what is called the “golden triangle”, popular with tourists, during their four -day trip.
Sources said the visit data would probably be 21.-24. April, although some modifications may occur depending on Mr. Modi’s schedule, given that PM will be expected to travel to Saudi Arabia for a long -term dual -sided visit from 22 to 24 April.
During his journey, Mr. Waltz will negotiate with the NSA Ajit Doval about the successor of the India-USA mechanism of initiative for critical and emerging technologies (olled), which has now retreated to the transformation of relations using strategic technology (Trust). Mr. Waltz’s schedule will include speaking on the Indo-USA forum organized by the Centeer Antiant with its headquarters in Delhi.
Visits of Mr. Vance and Mr. Waltz, followed by visits to the US National Intelligence Director (Day) of Tulsi’s Gabbard, are expected before visiting Minister of Defense Peter Hegset, who will prepare for the US President Donald Trump this summer at the end of this year. In the US, which is in the US, which is in the US.
Visits will also be the first of the “reciprocal tariffs” of US administration, which include the total tax on Indian goods 26%. It would be for the new Delhi chance to express their response to the US unilateral action, leading to a decline in global market indices and likely to cause further economic disruptions.
The Indian tour of Mr. Vance and his family comes after two controversial trips abroad as a US vice president. His first foreign trip, after he was sworn, was in France and Germany in February, where he lost his feathers by criticizing European countries for ignoring freedom of expression and migration, which was perceived as his support for right -wing political parties. In March, Mr. Vance traveled to Greenland along with Mrs. Vance and Mr. Waltz to double Mr. Trump’s demands over Denmark a controlled island. The visit seemed to have failed because Vances remained at an American military base in a distant pituffik for the entire duration, where Mr. Vance cursed Denmark to “not do a good job” to ensure the security of Greenland.
According to the US news portal Politico, Mr. Vance was previously traveling to Delhi, but his plans have changed several times. According to sources at the end of March, he finally made a reconnaissance trip to Delhi and other destinations and the program will soon be completed.
