US, India to tackle trade at G7, US officials say

WASHINGTON: US Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will travel to India the week after the G7 leaders summit for further discussions on a possible trade deal, a senior US administration official said on Saturday, saying an agreement was possible.

Trade would be discussed during President Donald Trump's meeting with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during next week's gathering in France, but no agreement on a trade deal was expected at the summit, the official said.

"We know that Prime Minister Modi is quite ambitious about the role he sees for India, the importance of the US-India relationship," the official told reporters.
