Business Standard
|September 12, 2025
India is one of the top relationships the US has in the world today, and Washington is in a period of "extraordinary transition" in that relationship with Delhi, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio said on Thursday.
Introducing US ambassador-designate to India Sergio Gor at his confirmation hearing in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, Rubio said he has known Gor for a very long time and "who is the nominee to India, which is, I would say, one of the top relationships the US has in the world today, in terms of the future, what the world is going to look like." Last month, President Donald Trump said that he is promoting Gor, Director of Presidential Personnel, to be the next US Ambassador to India and Special Envoy for South and Central Asian Affairs.
