US Vice President JD Vance called Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday and discussed ways to deepen the India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership across key areas, as tensions continue in West Asia.
During the conversation, Modi also congratulated Vance and Second Lady Usha on the birth of their son and conveyed his best wishes to the family.
Vance’s call came days after Turkiye, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan signed a mutual defence pact. The agreement was widely seen as a reflection of a new regional alignment amid the West Asia conflict.
“Received a phone call from US Vice President JD Vance. We discussed ways to further deepen India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership across key areas,” Modi said on social media.
“Warmly congratulated him and the Second Lady on the birth of their son and conveyed best wishes to the entire family,” he said.
