Closer trade ties with India remain top priority: US envoy Sergio Gor
US Ambassador Sergio Gor said that US views sanctions as a means to end the Ukraine war, not to punish countries buying Russian oil, ahead of Marco Rubio's India visit next week
India and the United States are on the verge of finalising a trade deal, according to US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor. The major issues are already resolved, with ongoing negotiations over smaller details. Speaking at the Bloomberg New Economy Forum in Delhi, Gor expressed confidence that the two nations would soon conclude the agreement.
The negotiations are complex due to the size of both economies, involving billions of people and numerous products and sectors. Gor, who has been actively involved in several rounds of talks between US Trade Representative Jamie Pressly Greer and Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal, remains optimistic about wrapping up the deal, which has been in discussion for about 1.5 years.
