John Kirby describes India as a 'world player'

US' National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby has described India as a 'world player'.

He said he is looking forward to deepening relationship between India and the US.

"They (India) are already exporting security in the Indo-Pacific region and beyond, and they are contributing to the Indo-Pacific Quad. We are participating with India in the I2U2. I think you understand that that's a multilateral arrangement for the Middle East. So India is a world player and a net exporter of security and stability," Kirby said in an exclusive interview with ANI.

"And we look forward to deepening that and seeing that continue to prosper," he added.

Talking about the meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who arrived in Washington DC on Wednesday, and US President Joe Biden, Kirby said that the leaders' discussion will be "future-focused."

Narendra Modi is currently visiting the US.
