‘On every issue we are together...’ US State Department Spokesman Zed Tarar on Modi-Biden meet
India and United States have always been on the same page as far as several global issues are concerned, US State Department Spokesperson Zed Tarar said on Monday, during the ongoing G20 Summit in Bali where both leaders greeted each other with a warm hug and shared some light moments before heading in to the day's engagements.
Speaking to ANI in Bali, Tarar on Tuesday said that there is a "friendship" between Biden and Modi, and that it is "apparent."
"There is a friendship between President Biden and PM Modi which is apparent. There are several such world topics that both nations do not see face to face. But that does not affect our relationship. Every country moves as per their own strategy, most important is we are keeping pressure on Russia, not on our friends," said Zed Tarar.
Zed Tarar stated that the schedule for a bilateral meeting between the two leaders is in progress but he could not confirm immediately whether or not there would be a meeting between the two leaders.
