Indian Congress MP Shashi Tharoor has termed Sergio Gor’s arrival as U.S. Ambassador to India as a pivotal moment for resetting New Delhi–Washington ties, where the American diplomat must act as a "chief restructuring officer" to overcome tariff disputes, market access frictions, and geopolitical divergences, while leveraging shared democratic values to rebuild trust.
"Gor kicked off his first day on the right note: 'No partner is more essential than India,' he declared, stressing that 'it is my goal as ambassador to pursue a very ambitious agenda. We will do this as true strategic partners, each bringing strength, respect, and leadership to the table," Tharoor, himself a former diplomat, wrote in an opinion piece in The Indian Express on Jan. 15.
