Speaking to Fox Business Network, Bessent acknowledged the complexities in the India-US relationship amid current economic concerns, while highlighting the strong personal rapport between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump as a foundation for eventual agreement.

"This is a very complicated relationship. President Trump and Prime Minister Modi have very good relationships at that level. And it's not just over the Russian oil," the US Treasury Secretary said.

"India is the world's largest democracy, and the US is the world's largest economy. I think at the end of the day, we will come together," he added.
