US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will arrive in India on Wednesday evening as part of his first official visit to South Asia.
Tillerson’s three-day visit follows his talks with the Pakistani leadership. It’s his first trip to India after US President Donald Trump announced his new South Asia strategy in August, acknowledging that India had an important role in it. Trump said the US wanted to further develop its strategic partnership with the world’s largest democracy and sought more help in Afghanistan.
