The day when US Ambassador to India, Sergio Gor met senior cabinet ministers in Donald Trump’s government in Washington, it was announced in New Delhi that foreign secretary Vikram Misri will pay an official visit to the US.

According to a release issued by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri will begin a three-day visit to Washington DC on Wednesday the 8th of April 2026 to review bilateral trade and defence ties, and discuss the escalating crisis in West Asia.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said Misri’s April 8-10 trip will provide an opportunity to review the full spectrum of India-US bilateral relations and advance ongoing cooperation across key areas.

The India-US relations have not been smooth affair in the recent past specially after Trump imposed huge tariffs on Indian export items to America.

According to MEA sources the two sides are likely to deliberate on moving forward on the proposed bilateral trade deal during foreign secretary’s visit.

“The visit will provide an opportunity to review the full spectrum of India-US bilateral relations and advance ongoing cooperation across key areas,” the MDEA’s release stated and added that – the visit follows the External Affairs Minister’s visit to Washington DC in February and is in keeping with the regular high-level exchanges between the two sides.
