Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi literally rolled out the red carpet for President Biden as he arrived at a G20 summit in New Delhi that will focus on the war in Ukraine and other global challenges.
Men in blue vests wheeled out the decorous welcome mat for Mr. Biden as he disembarked Air Force One and headed to Mr. Modi’s residence for a bilateral meeting that lasted just shy of an hour and addressed issues in space, microchips, and Mr. Biden’s “moonshot” to tackle cancer.
“I don’t think many of you believed that there would be a press conference in Washington, D.C. and there was. We have insisted on a number of things and I think we’ve seen evidence of that,” Mr. Campbell told traveling reporters. “There are a number of things in India that we believe are quite strong and healthy. And there are other issues that frankly, we continue to have dialogue over. I think … India continues to be a work in progress.
“We don’t have a plan for the president to engage with the Chinese premier this weekend at this time,” National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan told reporters late Thursday on the Air Force One flight to New Delhi.
