                    Kerry Meets with Indian FM in New Delhi

   U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has held talks with his Indian
   counterpart, Salman Khurshid, in New Delhi.
   The talks Monday focused on regional security issues. Details of the
   discussions have yet to be released.
   On Sunday, Kerry urged India to act on climate change, saying it is
   essential for the country`s continued growth.
   Speaking at the start of his three-day visit to India, Kerry said he
   understood that India`s "paramount commitment to development and
   eradicating poverty" is essential, but that a "collective failure" to
   meet the challenges of climate change could inhibit all countries`
   dreams of growth and development.
   Kerry also said that as the world`s largest democracy, India can play a
   critical role in supporting Afghanistan`s 2014 elections by helping the
   government improve its electoral system and create a framework for
   resolving disputes.
   U.S. officials say the United States wants greater access for its goods
   in Indian markets. New Delhi, for its part, wants a friendlier U.S.
   immigration policy that will make it easier for highly skilled Indian
   workers to enter the American job market.
   Kerry arrived in New Delhi Sunday after a stop in Qatar, where he met
   with a group of foreign ministers to discuss Syria. He will travel to
   Saudi Arabia on Tuesday.
