US President Donald Trump has said that he wants to do everything possible to keep peace for the people of India and China, according to his spokesperson.
Over the past several weeks, the Trump administration has come out in support of India against China.
바카라He (Trump) said I love the people of India and I love the people of China and I want to do everything possible to keep the peace for the people,바카라 White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters at a news conference here on Thursday.
She was responding to a question on Trump바카라s message to India, which recently had a standoff with China in eastern Ladakh along the Line of Actual Control.
Earlier in the day, White House Economic Advisor Larry Kudlow described India as a great ally, saying President Trump is a great friend of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
On Wednesday, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that India has been a great partner of the US.
바카라India has been a great partner바카라¦ They are an important partner of ours. I have a great relationship with my foreign minister counterpart. We talked frequently about a broad range of issues. We talked about the conflict they had along the border with China. We've talked about the risk that emanates from the Chinese telecommunication infrastructure there,바카라 Pompeo told reporters in response to a question.
Travelling in Europe, US National Security Advisor Robert O바카라Brien told reporters that China has been very aggressive with India.
O바카라Brien said that India is a democracy and is a great friend of the United States. Prime Minister 바카라Modi and President Trump have a super relationship,바카라 he said.
바카라In fact, it was the last foreign trip that I took with the president before the COVID-19 crisis hit, was to India, and we had a great reception of the Indian people there. We have a lot in common with them, we speak English, we're democracies. We've got a growing, very strong relationship with India,바카라 O바카라Brien said.
Welcoming the White House statement, Al Mason, co-chair of the Trump Victory Indian American Finance Committee, said that unlike his predecessor, President Trump has come out openly in support of India.
바카라Most of the Indian-Americans have observed that every earlier president - be it a Democrat or Republican, like Clinton or Bush Senior or Bush Jr or Obama have been very scared to side with India openly, for fear of hurting China.
바카라Only President Trump has had the courage to say that바카라¦ I love India, America respects India바카라¦ US stands with India - and that also, to over one billion Indians in India at the Namaste Trump rally held in India바카라¦ and that too바카라¦ near India바카라s neighbour China,바카라 Mason said in a statement.
바카라And he is consistent in his love for India and Indian-Americans,바카라 he added.Ā
