US Secretary of State John Kerry, in New Delhi for the fifth India-US Strategic Dialogue, met Union Minister for Finance Arun Jaitley some time ago.

The meeting is seen as a very significant one given that the major thrust of the visit by Kerry and US Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzer is on re-energising business opportunities between the two nations.

It is also significant as Pritzer has concurred with other US officials' view that India's intransigence at the WTO on the issue of public stockholding of food for food security porgrammes has been "disappointing". The Indian stand has riled the West as the Trade Facilitation Agreement at the WTO is at stake.

Kerry arrived in New Delhi on Wednesday to narrow the differences on various issues ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to the US in September
