Former tech titan Chambers highlighted Prime Minister Modi’s remarkable 76 per cent approval rating and his unique ability to build trust.
“One thing about your prime minister, and obviously I’m a huge fan. I
think he’s the best leader in the world today. And I wish we had
somebody like that in the US. We haven’t got a political leader who has
over 50 per cent approval rating, and Prime Minister Modi has 76 per
cent,” Chambers, who is known for his influential role in the tech
industry, remarked during an interview with a private channel.
Chambers also emphasised the significance of a leader’s track record,
relationships, and trust-building abilities. He commended PM Modi
for forming relationships with every political leader
in the United States, citing the Prime Minister’s ability to garner trust
from the people.
“If you think about a leader, it’s about their track record. It’s about their
relationships and trust. He’s formed a relationship with every political
leader we’ve had in the US. The people trusting,” Chambers added. In 2022, India and US marked the 75th anniversary of diplomatic
relations. The two nations enjoy a comprehensive global strategic
partnership covering almost all areas of human endeavour, driven by
shared democratic values, convergence of interests on various issues
and vibrant people-to-people contacts.
Earlier in December, USISPF President and CEO Mukesh
Aghi said diplomatic momentum gained during the visits of Prime
Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe
Biden paved the way for a “concrete strategic roadmap” and new
initiatives between India and the US in several areas.
“The diplomatic momentum gained during the visits of Prime Minister
Modi and President Biden paved the way for a concrete strategic
roadmap and new dialogues and initiatives in multifaceted areas such
as clean energy cooperation, education, space collaboration,
semiconductors, quantum computing, drone technology, artificial
intelligence, with accelerated joint projects such as manufacturing GE
F-414 jet engines in India, putting India in the elite club of countries
with such manufacturing capability,” Aghi said.
In June last year, PM Modi travelled to the US for a State visit. US President Joe Biden had invited PM Modi for a State visit. He also addressed a joint meeting of Congress before a State dinner at the White House. Later, US President Biden travelled to India to attend the G20 Summit under India’s Presidency.
