Indian Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi met with General Ronald P. Clark, Commanding General of United States Army Pacific, in Honolulu, Hawaii, on April 20, for high-level talks aimed at deepening defence cooperation. Upon arrival at Fort Shafter, Dwivedi was received with a ceremonial Guard of Honour and conducted an aerial tour of Oahu island to observe US Army training facilities and multi-domain operational capabilities. The visit underscores the growing strategic alignment between India and the United States in the Indo-Pacific region, where both nations share an interest in maintaining peace and stability.
