„The leaders called on their governments to continue working to transform the India-US strategic partnership in all dimensions of our multilateral global agenda, based on trust and mutual understanding,” a White House joint statement said.
Defense cooperation received a boost during Modi’s June visit to the US after General Electric and Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to manufacture GE F-414 jet engines in India for HAL’s light combat aircraft Mk2. The deal did not raise any objections to the notification process required by the US Congress, meaning the two governments can now negotiate the terms of the deal. This is expected to involve significant technology transfer to India.
