EAM Jaishankar to represent India at Trump's inauguration
Mint Bangalore
|January 13, 2025
The foreign ministers of Japan and Australia will also attend the inauguration
External affairs minister (EAM) S. Jaishankar will represent India at the inauguration of Donald Trump as the 47th President of the United States on 20 January. The ministry of external affairs (MEA) said on Sunday that Jaishankar will also have meetings with representatives of the incoming Trump administration during his visit to the US.
Trump had defeated vice president Kamala Harris in the presidential election held in November.
Last month, Jaishankar said Trump has had a positive political view of India and it is in a much more advantageous position than many other countries to build "deeper" relations with his administration and take the bilateral ties forward.
