Modi will travel to Washington after concluding his two-day visit to Paris on February 10 and 11, where he will attend the AI Action Summit.

Addressing a press conference, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said Modi's visit will give further impetus and direction to India-US bilateral relationship. This will be the first meeting between the leaders after Trump came back to power for a second term.

Following the Indian government's announcement to amend the nuclear liability law and encourage private sector investment in the nuclear sector, India is set to work closer with both France and the United States to advance nuclear cooperation.
