Foreign Secretary Misri on three-day visit to Washington DC for talks on India–US ties

Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri is currently on a three-day visit to Washington DC from April 8 to 10, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said in a statement.

India’s Ambassador to the US, Vinay Mohan Kwatra, welcomed Misri to Washington DC on Wedneday.

In a post on X, Kwatra wrote: “Welcomed Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri to Washington, D.C. His visit offers an opportunity to review with our U.S. partners the full breadth of the India–U.S. partnership and to advance discussions across key pillars of our bilateral agenda — including trade, defence and technology — as well as exchange perspectives on regional and global developments.”

According to the ministry, the visit will provide an opportunity for both sides to review the full spectrum of India–US bilateral relations and advance ongoing cooperation in key sectors.

During the visit, Misri is expected to hold discussions with senior officials of the US administration on a range of issues, including trade, defence, science and technology, as well as regional and global developments of mutual interest.

The MEA said the visit follows External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar’s trip to Washington in February 2026 and is part of the regular high-level exchanges between the two countries aimed at strengthening bilateral engagement.
