U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson visited India Tuesday -- part of a multi-day trip to Asia and the Middle East that officials say is designed to cement a relationship instrumental in ending the war in Afghanistan.
After making a surprise visit in Afghanistan Monday and traveling from Islamabad, Pakistan, Tuesday, Tillerson and Afghan President Ashraf Ghani arrived in New Delhi.
Tillerson seeks a design for the region which involves a cooling of tensions between India and Pakistan, as well as persuading the Pakistani government to take stronger action to end ties with the Taliban and other jihadist groups. Withdrawal of support would end the war in Afghanistan, India Express reported Tuesday.
