INDIA, U.S.TO STEP UP STRATEGIC TIES
NEW YORK: Agreeing to "further refine" the India-US strategic partnership, Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Barack Obama have decided to step up cooperation in areas like security, counter-terrorism, defense, economy and climate change. During the fifth meeting between the two leaders in over a year, Obama also reiterated support for India's permanent membership of the UN Security Council while Modi pressed for reform of the world body within a fixed time frame. The climate change issue dominated the talks, with Obama saying India's leadership at the upcoming global conference in Paris in November will set the tone for decades to come after Modi underlined the need for concrete outcomes at the meet. Underlining India's commitment to deal with the problem, Modi said there should be no negativity ahead of the global summit as he pressed for transfer of finances and technology to developing countries at affordable costs and make it accessible to those needy.
