NEW DELHI-
President Barack Obama said that the United States can become India’s “best partner” as he wrapped up a three-day visit to New Delhi on Tuesday.
“India and the United States are not just natural partners — I believe that America can be India’s best partner,” Obama said in a speech before an audience of young people.
“Of course, only Indians can decide India’s role in the world,” said the US president who received a rapturous reception from the audience.
“But I’m here because I am absolutely convinced that both our peoples will have more jobs and opportunity, our nations will be more secure, and the world will be a safer and more just place when our two democracies stand together.”
Obama was due to fly out later Tuesday to Saudi Arabia at the end of a visit that saw him become the first US president to attend India’s Republic Day celebrations.
This is what the Yanks are good at playing one country against another. Looks like the Indians are falling for it.
