WASHINGTON: (Jun 3) US Second Lady Usha Vance has termed the India-US relationship as one that is “very personal” for her, underlining that this is a time of “great opportunity” for the bilateral relations that have “ebbed and flowed at times”.
“Well, of course, it is a very personal relationship because I have family members who are in India, and I have many family members here in the United States, and I did grow up visiting India and visiting those family members, and they grew up visiting me,” Vance said during a fireside chat here on Monday at the eighth edition of the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF) Leadership Summit.
“So that’s always been a relationship that I’ve personally thought of as very important,” she said at the event attended by lawmakers, prominent government, business and community leaders from the Indian diaspora and the US. PTI
