Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed a joint session of the US Congress for a second time, underlining the importance of stability in the Indo-Pacific region and how it is a central concern of the India-US partnership. Modi spoke about the India-US vision for the region, envisioning a free, open and inclusive Indo-Pacific connected by secure seas, defined by international law, free from domination and anchored in ASEAN centrality, without the impossible burden of debt, without the leverage of connectivity for strategic purposes and lifted by shared prosperity.
