Sullivan's visit to India comes days before Donald Trump takes over as US President on January 20 and is termed a farewell visit.
Earlier today, National Security Advisor Ajit Doval met his US counterpart Jake Sullivan at the Sardar Patel Bhawan.
“iCET is a people's initiative, but owes in many ways to one man…My Indian counterpart Ajit Doval's vision. It was NSA Doval who believed our partnership and thought this could help both the nations,” Sullivan said at an event in IIT-Delhi.
“It is this partnership that has taken us to new heights. Advanced technologies of the future should take the relationship into the future…to make the world a better place for everyone. I and Ajit have built a deeply personal relationship over the last couple of years,” the US NSA added.
"United States is now finalising the necessary steps to remove long-standing regulations that have prevented civil nuclear cooperation between India's leading nuclear entities and U.S. companies," Sullivan said.

Sullivan, besides being in India for the crucial third round of consultations on the Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technology (iCET), had really strolled into India for the second round of talks in June last year over the iCET.
The iCET was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Joe Biden to forge greater collaboration between India and the US in areas of critical technologies such as artificial intelligence, semiconductors, biotech, and defense innovation.
