Washington, Sep 26 (IANS) "The people of India deeply
love you," a somewhat emotional Prime Minister Manmohan
Singh told US President George W. Bush as he wrapped up a
day's visit to the White House even as the two countries tied
up the loose ends of their historic nuclear agreement.
"This may be my last visit to you during your presidency.
The people of India deeply love you. And all that you have
done to bring our two countries closer to each other is something
history will remember," Manmohan Singh told Bush at the
Oval Office after their talks.
He praised Bush for his "historic role" in the "massive
transformation" of India-US relations and for bringing
the two democracies closer.
Bush, on his part, fondly recalled his visit to India in March
2006. "I will never forget my visit to your country,
Mr Prime Minister. I remember telling my friends when I got
back what an exciting place India is," Bush said.
Many in the US have dubbed this as Bush's "Nixon moment"
as the breakthrough in ties with India could be compared to
what former president Richard Nixon did to open up ties with
China in the seventies.
