The stalled talks on the bilateral trade deal between India and the United States are set to resume as Indian government officials visit Washington DC this month.

The development comes as both sides look to build on earlier progress and move closer to finalising the deal, which has remained unsigned despite a framework being agreed upon in February.

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Gor informed about a high-level meeting with US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer. Gor described the discussions as “highly productive,” highlighting renewed momentum in advancing trade priorities across South and Central Asia.

“The United States and India have previously agreed to a trade deal, and we look forward to welcoming an Indian delegation to Washington later this month,” he said in the post.

The upcoming visit comes after Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri’s ongoing trip to the United States, where he is engaging with senior American officials to review the broader scope of bilateral ties, including trade, defence, and critical technologies.

According to the Ministry of External Affairs, the visit aims to strengthen strategic engagement and assess the full spectrum of India-US relations.

India’s Ambassador to the US, Vinay Mohan Kwatra, also underscored that the discussions are focused on advancing cooperation across key pillars such as trade and technology.
