WASHINGTON: (Nov 13) There is a desire within the US and India to try to conclude phase one of the bilateral trade agreement, perhaps by the G20 Summit in Florida next month, a former senior US diplomat said.
India and the US finalised a framework for the first phase of the bilateral trade agreement in February following a phone call between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump. However, changes in the American tariff landscape have led to renewed negotiations, which are yet to conclude.
“By all expectations, I think that there’s a desire to try to conclude the phase one deal, perhaps by the G20,” Nisha Biswal, former Assistant Secretary of State for South and Central Asia, told PTI in an interview here.
