*Washington D.C., May 2, 2025* — The United States has reaffirmed its unflinching support for India in its fight against terrorism once again. A U.S. State Department spokesperson announced that Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Indian government enjoy the complete support of the United States in countering threats from terror groups and cross-border attacks.
"The United States stands shoulder-to-shoulder with India in its battle against terrorism," the official declared at a press briefing. "We remain engaged closely with our Indian partners to counter extremist threats, deepen security cooperation, and secure a free, open Indo-Pacific region."
The firm expression of support is now coming at a time when India has stepped up its diplomatic efforts to mobilize global outrage against terrorism, particularly following the recent developments in the region. The U.S. government stressed the need for information sharing on intelligence, collaborative counter-terrorism efforts, and ongoing military and strategic cooperation between the two democracies.
Emphasizing Prime Minister Modi's leadership, the spokesperson further stated, "We highly appreciate our strategic partnership with India. Prime Minister Modi has our complete support as we work together to maintain peace, security, and democratic values."
India and the United States have enjoyed an expanding defense and intelligence partnership in the past decade, with more cooperation in cyber security, counter-terrorism training, and regional intelligence sharing.
This renewed commitment is likely to shore up India's diplomatic influence and strengthen bilateral ties between the two countries further as they keep striving to meet emerging global security threats in concert.
