I am leaving for New York to attend the 63rd Session of the UN
General Assembly. India has consistently attached importance to the
central role of the United Nations in promoting global peace,
stability and development. I look forward to addressing the UN General
Assembly and attending the UN High Level Event on the Millennium
Development Goals. I will use the opportunity to articulate Indias
conviction that the contemporary challenges of our times are best
addressed through collective and multilateral approaches.
I will draw the world communitys attention to the need for the reform
of international institutions, including of the United Nations, and to
address global challenges such as the food and energy crises,
terrorism and progress on the Millennium Development Goals.
During my stay in New York, I also look forward to bilateral meetings
with some of the visiting leaders, including of China, Italy, Namibia,
Pakistan, and the United Kingdom.
I also plan to meet a group of US CEOs, and members of the Indian-
American community, both of whom have contributed to the consolidation
of relations between India and the United States.
At the invitation of President Bush I will visit Washington. I look
forward to my discussions with him on the entire range of issues on
our bilateral agenda with the United States, including our civil
nuclear initiative. In recent years our relations have expanded
significantly in areas of interest to us such as education, trade,
business, technology, energy and agriculture. The engagement between
the two countries has strengthened and we are pursuing the multi-
faceted cooperation to our mutual benefit.
