‘US likely to announce defence deals worth billions with India’: Envoy Kenneth Juster

While addressing a press conference ahead of Defence Expo 2020, US Ambassador to India Kenneth Juster said that US is likely to announce defence deals worth billions with India. He said, “When I first began working on US-India relationship in 2001, there were virtually no defence sales between the United States and India. Today that figure is about 18 billion dollars and there are several billion dollars of additional sales in the pipeline on a range of items, some of which we hope to be announcing in the near term.”
