Both Trump and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi share a longstanding friendship, said US Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, during an address at the Raisina Dialogue security conference in New Delhi on Tuesday.

“I think there’s huge opportunity for continued growth and continued investment in our mutual interest,” said Gabbard, who was in New Delhi as part of a broader tour of Asia that includes stops in Japan and Thailand.

Gabbard said she has had constructive meetings with Modi and other Indian leaders while in New Delhi, adding Trump remains committed to his country’s international partnerships including the Quad.

The security grouping that also includes Japan and Australia has been seen as a counter to China’s in the Indo-Pacific. Beijing has criticized the group as a “clique” that could stoke a new Cold War.

“Both he and his team and our cabinet have already been engaging really from day one with our partners,” Gabbard said.
