As per reports, the meeting will also benefit India in getting high-run technology from US companies for “Atmanirbhar Bharat” under the vision of PM Narendra Modi.

“In order to discuss bilateral and regional issues, Sullivan also held bilateral meetings with the Crown Prince, Sheikh Tahnoon, and Doval. He is eager to continue his discussions with Doval outside of the Quad Summit in Australia later this month,” according to the White House.
Furthermore, the White House’s statement ended with a thanksgiving note. “Sullivan thanked the Crown Prince for Saudi Arabia’s assistance in evacuating US citizens from Sudan. The four delegates decided to keep in touch on a regular basis and to follow up on the issues raised throughout the day,” the White House said.
