Hillary, Mamata likely to discuss FDI |
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is meeting West Bengal Chief
Minister Mamata Banerjee here today and the two are likely to discuss Foreign
Direct Investment (FDI) in multi-brand retail. Clinton arrived in Kolkata from
Bangladesh on Sunday. She will arrive in New Delhi this afternoon and is scheduled
to meet various Indian leaders including the Prime Minister, Dr. Manmohan Singh,
Leader of Opposition Sushma Swaraj and External Affairs Minister SM Krishna. Civil
nuclear cooperation, regional security and Iran are among the key issues that
are expected to be discussed. Clinton ’s trip coincides with the visit of an Iranian
trade delegation, as India walks a tightrope between strengthening bilateral ties
with the United States and meeting its fast-growing energy needs from countries
like Iran.
