External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on Sunday said India’s “Make in India” priorities would remain central to the next phase of defence cooperation with the United States, as the two countries look to deepen military and strategic engagement under a renewed 10-year framework agreement.
Addressing a joint press conference with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in New Delhi, Jaishankar said both sides discussed aligning future defence collaboration with India’s domestic manufacturing ambitions and evolving battlefield requirements.
