Oct 05, 2023

New Delhi, Oct 05 (ANI): The US Ambassador to India, Eric Garcetti, on October 04, said the “great minds” back in his homeland and India can find more paths to peace. “I’m so proud to see the United States of America and India working together for a more peaceful world. But we have to innovate. The world is changing more in the next five or 10 years than it’s changed in the last 100 years. But the great minds in India and the great minds in United States can work to find more paths to peace,” he said. The US envoy was attending the plenary session of ‘Swavlamban 2.0’, a two-day seminar of Naval Innovation and Indigenisation Organisation (NIIO), which commenced in the national capital on October 05. Referring to the growing global challenges, Garcetti cited the presence of the US and India’s chief of staff at the Indo-Pacific army chiefs’ conference in the national capital, saying that both countries are cooperating with each other and strengthening bilateral ties for a “safer tomorrow”. “Today this challenge that we put forward on oil spills on our undersea domain really means that we can show not just our own countries a safer tomorrow, but the entire world. And well last week when we had the army Chiefs of Staff here this week when we have Innovations for Defence Excellence (iDEX) and of course, in desex coming together, it shows that the sky’s the limit and we’re going to keep going together,” he said.
