Speaking on the sidelines of his deal with at India-US Business Summit, Congressman RO Khanna mentioned the US needs to verify the GE Engines take care of India is finished in order that they do not lose out to Europe. 

Congressman Khanna mentioned India has realised that the Soviet army gear does not work as properly and the Soviet Union is shifting in the direction of China, and India has actually been open to constructing a powerful relationship with America. 

Saying India needs jet engines, he added, “And the first thing is to make sure that deal gets done, hopefully before the Prime Minister’s (Narendra Modi) visit. And we are working on that.” “We also are working to ensure that the Prime Minister gets to speak to the United States Congress. The co-chairs will be requesting the speaker to issue that invitation,” he added. “We need to be stronger on defence, and this is a key time,” he mentioned. 

Regarding jet engines, he additional added, “The defence deliverable on the jet engines is critical.” Further, on the enterprise and financial ties between the 2 international locations, he mentioned, “There needs to be a continued effort. I think the reality is that India can emerge as the hub in Asia for the Asian market. Companies in my district like Apple moving out of China, moving into India, into Bangalore, and opening up Apple stores there. I have encouraged companies to manufacture in the United States and restore into the United States, but to the extent they need to sell into Asia to look to allies like India instead of China.” 

“We need to figure out how to provide India with alternative sources of cheaper energy so they can grow. And I’ve appreciated that India has unequivocally condemned Putin’s invasion of Ukraine, but this should not be a barrier to strengthening a partnership that will last decades,” he added.
