US President Donald Trump, in a firm statement from the Oval Office, directed Sergio Gor, the US Ambassador-designate to India, to prioritize American interests. ‘You better represent us, not them… But Sergio is going to do a great job,’ Trump said. Gor, nominated in August as US Ambassador and Special Envoy for South and Central Asian Affairs, recently met Prime Minister Narendra Modi to discuss strategic bilateral issues.
