Washington, Pretr. US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has termed the recent Pentagon visit of Chief of Defense Staff General Bipin Rawat as historic. During this, they discussed ways to ensure better coordination between the armies of the two countries and reiterated their commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific region. General Rawat's visit to the US came a week after the first one-on-one meeting between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe Biden at the White House, in which both reaffirmed the need for greater military cooperation between the armies of the two countries.

"It was an honor to meet Indian Chief of Defense Staff General Rawat last week during his historic visit to the Pentagon," Austin said. This remark of the US Defense Secretary has come at a time when China's aggression in the region is increasing. Austin also tweeted, "We reaffirmed our abiding commitment to a free and open Indo-Pacific and discussed ways to promote greater interoperability between US and Indian military forces."

Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby said General Rawat and Austin exchanged views on priorities for advancing the US-India defense partnership. "This historic meeting highlights the enduring strength of the US-India key defense partnership," he said. Both countries work closely with like-minded partners to maintain a free and open Indo-Pacific.

During his visit to the Pentagon, General Rawat also met his American counterpart, General Mark Milley. Many issues were discussed between the two. This includes ways of ensuring regional security and their respective roles as key military advisors to the civilian leadership.
