Like Chandrayaan, US-India relationship will go to the moon and even beyond, says EAM Jaishankar
External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar has said, stressing that like the Chandrayaan, bilateral ties will go to the moon and even beyond. Jaishankar's remarks came as he addressed several hundred Indian-Americans gathered at the India House from various parts of the US to attend the 'Celebrating Colours of Friendship' event organised by the Embassy of India here on Saturday.
«There is one clear message today that our relationship is at an all-time high.
But as they say in America, you ain't seen anything yet. So, we are going to take this relationship to a different level, to a different place,» he said at the largest-ever gathering of Indian- Americans at the India House.
Jaishankar said that the success of the G20 could not have happened without the support of the US.
«As the host, when things go well, the host always gets the credit. It's reasonable. But, the G20 could not have come together if all the members of the G20 did not work for its success,» he said.
«I think particularly, I must say, because I'm in this country today, the contribution, the support and the understanding that we got from the United States to make a successful G20, I think that is something I would certainly like to recognise in public in Washington DC,» Jaishankar said amidst loud applause from Indian- Americans.
«So, it may have been our success in a literal way, but I think it was the G20 (nations) success. To me, it was also a success of the India-US partnership...please keep giving this partnership the support it needs, the support it deserves and the support it expects.
