Speaker: Ladies and gentlemen, the President of the United States accompanied by His Excellency,
the Prime Minister of the Republic of India. Speaker: Ladies and gentlemen, the National
Anthem of the Republic of India, followed by the National Anthem of the United States
of America. President Obama: Prime Minister Singh, Mrs.
Gursharan Kaur, members of the Indian delegation -- on behalf of Michelle and myself, it is
a great pleasure to welcome you to the White House. On behalf of the American people, it
is my great honor to welcome you to the United States. Mr. Prime Minister, yours is the first
official state visit of my presidency, and it is fitting that you and India be so recognized.
(Applause.) This visit reflects the high esteem in which I and the American people hold your
wise leadership. It reflects the abiding bonds of respect and friendship between our people,
including our friends in the Indian American community who join us here today. But above
all, your visit, at this pivotal moment in history, speaks to the opportunity before
us -- to build the relationship between our nations, born in the last century, into one
of the defining partnerships of the 21st century. For while our two nations have taken different
paths to reach this moment, ours is a common story. It's the story of two proud people
who struggled to break free from an empire and declare their independence. Two bold experiments
in democracy with constitutions that begin with the same simple words: "We the people."
Two great republics dedicated to the ideals of liberty, justice, equality, and the never-ending
work of perfecting their union. It's the story of two economic marvels fueled by an ethic
of hard work and innovation. And today, our nations are two global leaders, driven not
to dominate other nations but to build a future of security and prosperity for all nations.
Mr. Prime Minister, as we work to build that future, India is indispensable. As leading
economies, the United States and India can strengthen the global economic recovery, promote
trade that creates jobs for both our people, and pursue growth that is balanced and sustained.
As nuclear powers, we can be full partners in preventing the spread of the world's most
deadly weapons, securing loose nuclear materials from terrorists, and pursuing our shared vision
of a world without nuclear weapons. As people who've known the pain and anguish of terrorism,
we can stand together -- cooperating to prevent future attacks, and promote the development
and prosperity that undermines violent extremism. As India becomes an increasingly influential
global power, we can partner to meet other transnational challenges: developing clean
energy partnerships, confronting climate change, stopping infectious disease, reducing hunger
and working to end extreme poverty in our time. And as the world's largest democracies,
we can keep faith with our common values -- speaking out and standing up for the rights and dignity
to which all human beings are entitled; and showing that nations that respect the rights
and aspirations of their people are ultimately more stable, more secure and more successful.
This is the India that America welcomes today -- a leader in Asia and around the world.
(Applause.) These are the challenges we are summoned to meet in partnership. This is the
progress that is possible -- today and in the days and years ahead. And, Mr. Prime Minister,
as we build our common future, we can draw strength from our shared past. For it was
exactly 60 years ago, in a ceremony not unlike this, that an American president welcomed
to the White House the first prime minister of an independent India. And while the decades
that followed were not without their challenges, the spirit of that first visit is with us
today -- the same sense of possibility, the same hope for the future. So as President
Truman said of President Nehru, it is my privilege to welcome "the respected leader of a great
nation of free people." And as Prime Minister Nehru said of the work before them, may our
two great nations "find many ways of working together in friendly and fruitful cooperation
to our mutual advantage, and for the good of humanity." Mr. Prime Minister, Mrs. Kaur,
in that spirit, I welcome you to the United States of America. (Applause.) Prime Minister Singh: Mr. President, First
Lady Mrs. Obama, thank you very much for your warm words of welcome, Mr. President. My wife
and I are deeply honored to be in your great country on the first state visit of your presidency.
(Applause.) Mr. President, I bring to you and the people of the United States of America
the friendly greetings of our one billion people of India. (Applause.) India and America
are separated by distance, but bound together by the values of democracy, pluralism, rule
of law, and respect for fundamental human freedoms. Over the years, we have built upon
these values and created a partnership that is based upon both principle and pragmatism.
Our relations have been transformed, and today they encompass cooperation in all areas of
human activity. Mr. President, I've come today to build upon these successes and to strengthen
our multifaceted relationship. We seek to broaden and deepen our strategic partnership,
and to work with the United States to meet these challenges of a fast-changing world
in this 21st century. (Applause.) This is a moment of great opportunity in our relationship.
India and the United States can, and must, work together to harness the immense potential
of our talented and enterprising people, and support each other's growth and prosperity.
We should cooperate in addressing global challenges of combating terrorism, making our environment
cleaner and moving towards a world free of nuclear weapons. (Applause.) Mr. President,
we deeply appreciate your strong personal commitment to our bilateral relationship.
My wife and I are deeply grateful to you and the First Lady for receiving us during this
Thanksgiving week. With these words, I once again thank you, Mr. President. God bless
America. God bless India. (Applause.) 0 1 2 Ü Ý 8
