Obama hails U.S.-India ties, plans visit in 2010
November 24, 2009
By Mimi Hall, USA TODAY
WASHINGTON — President Obama committed Tuesday to implementing a Bush-era nuclear pact and vowed to share more anti-terrorism information with India as he welcomed Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to the White House.
"The relationship between the United States and India will be one of the defining partnerships of the 21st century," Obama said during a news conference with Singh.
The Indian prime minister is the first foreign leader to pay an official visit to the Obama White House complete with a state dinner. Singh and Obama met for two hours before taking questions.
The nuclear pact, first agreed to by Singh and President George W. Bush in 2005, ended a three-decade moratorium on the trading of civilian nuclear energy and technology between the countries.
Noting India's rise as a global economic powerhouse with one of the world's "fastest-growing economies," Obama said increasing trade ties between the two democracies will help create badly needed jobs. He said he has accepted Singh's invitation to visit India in 2010.
Obama also praised Singh for supporting the United States' push for nuclear non-proliferation and welcomed India's participation in a nuclear security summit he will host next year. "I look forward ... to India's participation as a full partner in our shared vision of a world without nuclear weapons," Obama said.
Singh also made reference to Obama's upcoming decision on whether to send more troops to Afghanistan. "It is important for the international community to sustain its engagement in Afghanistan, to help its emergence as a modern state," he said.
