Marco Rubio, US Secretary of State, on Monday stressed the importance of Washington’s partnership with New Delhi while meeting Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York. He also two countries would "continue working together to promote a free and open Indo-Pacific region, including through the Quad."

The US and India ties have been strained by trade frictions, but had looked to be picking up again until Trump's visa announcement on Friday — a move that has hit Indian technology companies hard.

He later posted on X, We discussed key areas of our bilateral relationship, including trade, energy, pharmaceuticals, and critical minerals and more to generate prosperity for India and the United States.
