Chief of the Naval Staff Concludes Official Visit to the United States
Admiral Dinesh K. Tripathi, Chief of the Naval Staff, concluded his official visit to the United States which was aimed at further strengthening the India-US maritime partnership and advancing shared strategic interests in the Indo-Pacific.
During the visit, the CNS held high-level engagements with senior US civilian and military leadership, including John C. Phelan, Secretary of the Navy; Elbridge Colby, Under Secretary of War for Policy; Admiral Samuel J. Paparo, Commander INDOPACOM; Admiral Stephen P. Koehler, Commander US Pacific Fleet; and Lt General James F. Glynn, Commander US Marine Forces Pacific. Interactions were also held with Vice Admiral Yvette DeVids, Steve Parode, and Rear Admiral Raymond P. Owens.
Discussions reviewed key pillars of India-US defence cooperation: strengthening maritime security and maritime domain awareness, expanding operational interoperability, enhancing information sharing, safeguarding sea lines of communication and critical undersea infrastructure, and coordinated responses to HADR, SAR, counter-piracy, and other non-traditional security challenges.
The two sides also deliberated on refining bilateral and multilateral exercises, including MALABAR, PASSEX, CMF, and MILAN, and on collaboration in emerging domains such as unmanned systems, ISR, cyber, and space-enabled maritime capabilities.
The CNS visited the Centre for Excellence in Disaster Management & Humanitarian Assistance (CFE-DMHA), where discussions focused on enhancing cooperation and exchange of Best Practices in HADR, maritime humanitarian operations, and resilience-building across the Indo-Pacific.
At the National Defense University (NDU), the CNS interacted with its President, Vice Admiral Peter A. Garvin, and reviewed ongoing cooperation in professional military education, higher learning linkages, and training exchanges. He also met Indian officers undergoing courses at the Eisenhower School, National War College, and the College of Information & Cyberspace.
The visit reaffirmed the growing synergy between the Indian Navy and the US Navy and underscored the shared commitment to a secure, stable, and rules-based Indo-Pacific. It further strengthened the longstanding India-US Comprehensive Global Strategic Partnership.
