India seeks to boost tech pact with US amid fears over Trump’s potential clawback

Sullivan’s visit included meetings with his Indian counterpart Ajit Doval on Sunday and Monday.

Analysts say there is uncertainty over whether the incoming administration will show the same commitment to developing the technological partnership since Trump has aired concerns about sharing sophisticated US technology with other countries.

“What [Sullivan] might be trying to do is to ensure whether those [political] developments can be made resistant to any dramatic changes from the Trump administration. It will certainly be very important for India,” said Harsh Pant, an international relations professor at Kings College London.
