    United States President-elect Barack Obama's most recent and most detailed comment on relations with India is contained in the personal letter he addressed to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh when the latter visited Washington D. C. in September 2008. Obama said, "I would like to see United States-India relations grow across the board to reflect our shared interests, shared values, shared sense of threats, and ever burgeoning ties between our two economies and societies."
