U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken will travel next week to India, an important partner in U.S. efforts to counter China and in vaccine diplomacy that is hobbled by its own COVID-19 crisis.
It will be Blinken's first visit to the world's largest democracy as President Joe Biden's secretary of state. He will meet with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on Wednesday.
Blinken will also visit Kuwait at the end of his July 26-29 trip.
