  "account": "Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal will visit the United States from September 29 to October 5 to attend the G20 Trade Ministers meeting, according to an official statement from the Commerce Ministry. This visit comes as India and the US continue their negotiations on a bilateral trade deal, with a senior US State Department official stating that the agreement is \"90 per cent-plus\" complete, with only a few final issues remaining to be worked out.\n\nThe official expressed optimism about the impending trade deal, saying it \"could unleash another level\" of India-US bilateral relations, which has been a longstanding sticking point between the two countries. He emphasized that this agreement would mark a significant milestone in the relationship, which has not seen progress in decades.\n\nDuring his US visit, Goyal will also engage in discussions related to India's trade and economic interests in the country. Additionally, the US official mentioned that Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to visit India in October as part of ongoing engagement between the two nations.\n\nUS Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit the United States for the G20 Summit, set to be hosted in Florida in December. The official hinted at potential major announcements during this visit, stating, \"There's just a lot happening in the relationship.\" The discussion also touched upon the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor (IMEC), a project that the US and India consider a high priority, though progress has been hampered by regional conflicts. The official indicated that once the Middle East stabilizes, the IMEC is likely to gain momentum.",
