US Secretary of state John Kerry lands in India

Nuclear and trade issues are likely to dominate talks as US Secretary of State John Kerry lands in Delhi on Wednesday night for the Indo-US Strategic dialogue. But Mr. Kerry’s bigger mission, as the first political cabinet-level visitor from the Obama Administration is to press the ‘restart button’ in ties that have seen no forward movement in almost a year. “Since former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit in September last year, neither side has had any significant forward-moving discussions,” a senior official told.

Ahead of Mr. Kerry’s visit, Prime Minister Modi held a meeting with Finance and Defence Minister Arun Jaitley, and External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Tuesday, to discuss the government’s stand on the various issues confronting India-US relations.

He alleged that the UPA government helped in the "spying".
