Washington, April 03: Ahead of his visit to India next week, US Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner has said his aim is to deepen America’s relationship with the “economically and strategically important” country, where he would discuss global reforms and issue of terrorism financing.
“… I think there’s certainly a deep commitment on the President (Barack Obama’s) part to strengthen this relationship, a deep appreciation for the challenges India’s facing and the common interest we are facing on these kinds of things,” Geithner told a group of Indian journalists here.
“I have watched him, listened to the President on this kind of stuff and I know he shares that kind of view very strongly,” he said, adding the sole purpose of his April 5-6 trip is to deepen and strengthen the bilateral relationship.
