US Vice President JD Vance is set to visit India later this month, accompanied by Second Lady Usha Vance, Politico reported on Wednesday.
This will be Vance’s second international trip as vice president, following his recent visits to France and Germany.
During his first foreign visit, Vice President JD Vance sparked reactions at the Munich Security Conference with a sharp critique of European governments on illegal migration, religious freedoms, and election integrity.
His speech surprised allies anticipating talks on a potential Russia-Ukraine peace deal.
Usha Vance, whose parents emigrated from India to the United States, will visit her ancestral country for the first time as second lady.
On January 21, 2025, Usha Vance became the first Indian-American Hindu Second Lady after her husband JD Vance was sworn in as the 50th Vice President of the United States.
Earlier in February, during a meeting in Paris, JD Vance and Prime Minister Narendra Modi discussed mutual interests, including US support for India’s energy diversification with clean and “reliable” nuclear technology.
