From the seas to the stars: a new US-India relationship

The 58-paragraph long statement signifies a "new level of trust and understanding" between the two countries. It includes a dozen partnership deals on technology transfers, skill development, trade, and business. The global fight against terrorism has taken a back seat, making way for agreements on technology enhancement and renewable energy.

President Biden has expressed his intention to reduce US barriers on the export of high-performance computing (HPC) technology and source code to India.
