Paul Kapur said Washington is working closely with New Delhi to deepen collaboration in defence, civil nuclear cooperation and trusted artificial intelligence, alongside other critical technologies that will shape future economic growth and security.
The announcement comes as India and the US continue to expand their strategic partnership through greater defence interoperability, technology collaboration and resilient supply chains.
