With the inauguration of the GES 2017 just hours away, the US embassy in India shared a comment American Secretary of State Rex Tillerson previously made about the summit and the relationship between New Delhi and Washington. "Indians and Americans don't just share an affinity for democracy. We share a vision of the future," Tillerson, the American equivalent for a minister for external affairs, had said.
