The U.S. administration under President Donald Trump is moving towards multi-polarity which suits India’s interests, and the two nations have agreed on the need for a bilateral trade pact, External Affairs Minister (EAM) S Jaishankar said. During a session titled ‘India’s Rise And Role In The World’ at the Chatham House think tank in London on Wednesday evening, the EAM was asked about his thoughts on the first few weeks of the new US government and, specifically, about Trump’s reciprocal tariffs. “We see a President and an administration which, in our parlance, is moving towards multi-polarity and that is something that suits India,” said Jaishankar, who is on a six-day visit to the UK and Ireland. “From President Trump's perspective, the one big shared enterprise that we have is the Quad, which is an understanding where everybody pays their fair share… There are no free riders involved. So that's a good model which works,” he said. The Quad alliance consists of the US, India, Australia and Japan.
