Earlier, in an official statement, the MEA said that the Foreign Secretary's visit to Washington DC would, "provide an opportunity to review the full spectrum of India-U.S. bilateral relations and advance ongoing cooperation across key areas."
It underlined that the visit of FS Misri follows the visit by EAM S Jaishankar to Washington DC earlier in February and is in keeping with the regular high-level exchanges between the two sides.US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gor, is also present in the United States.
Meanwhile, Misri's visit comes at a crucial time as the US accepts Iran's ten-point plan.
US President Donald Trump suspended the "bombing and attack" campaign on Iran, announcing a two-week double-sided ceasefire and accepting the 10-point proposal from Iran. The Iranian side then accepted Trump's peace overture and agreed to safe passage via the Strait of Hormuz for two weeks, as well as a pause in military operations. (ANI)
