This is an opportunity to elevate their relationship and all of our relations to the next level," the US Ambassador said. He said PM Modi's visit will express the warmth between "our people and the ambitions we have to take this relationship forward."Garcetti said India and the US "trust one another, and our defence partnership really displays that where it's that India has more exercises on the military side with the United States than any other country in the world, or whether it's the joint production of military defence."PM Modi is scheduled to visit the US on June 22 following an invitation from President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden.Garcetti inaugurated the US Consulate in Hyderabad on Friday during a gala celebration of the 247th anniversary of American Independence.

Show me your budget and I'll tell you what you value," said Ambassador Garcetti."By that standard, it should be clear how deeply the United States values this city and this region. We opened this USD 340 million facility because Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Odisha are writing one of the most important chapters of the US-India Strategic Partnership," Garcetti said.Ambassador Garcetti began his trip to Hyderabad with a visit to the historic Chowmahalla Palace.

More of the stunning architecture that has made this visit to #Hyderabad so remarkable."In another tweet, Garcetti stated, "Golconda Fort has witnessed a millennium of kings, dynasties, and empires. It's awe-inspiring to stand here amidst the great sweep of Deccan history."
