New Delhi: The United States on Thursday said that no decision has been made in relation with India’s deal for S-400 missile defence system with Russia. Visiting Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said that the US was working on a particular section of the CAATSA to extend waiver in a way that would make sense to India as well as the United States. Pompeo met Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj under the first India-US 2+2 dialogue.
“With respect to the S-400, no decision has been made. We are working to impose CAATSA Section 231 in a way that is appropriate and lawful and to exercise that waiver authority only where it makes sense. And we as a team, the national security team, will work on that and as we continue to have these conversations with India about that, I think come to an outcome that makes sense for each of our two countries,” Pompeo said.
