Barack Obama’s India visit is on

Washington : American president Barack Obama is looking ahead to his first visit to India in November, an administrative official said here, confirming that the trip is on since the relationship between the two nations is vital for the South Asia region and the world at large.

“The President looks forward to his trip to India,” State Department spokesman, P J Crowley, told foreign journalists at the Washington Foreign Press Center on Thursday.

“As we’ve said many times, it is a vitally important relationship to the region and to the world,” Crowley said.

“The world’s oldest democracy and largest democracy should have constructive relations, and we do.

India, as an emerging global player, will be essential to solving challenges in the region, Afghanistan being one, and challenges globally, climate change, you know, being one,” he said when asked about the agenda during the Obama trip to India.
