Obama Trip to India Cost – Read and Comment
A recent matter of discussion is Obama´s trip to India which is said to cost $200 million... per day!
Obama tells the public that he is worried about poverty in the US but spending $200 million per day for his trip to India seems like a good move, right?
The $200 million will be spent on Obama´s security and accomodations while in India.
So what is Obama´s trip to India all about? Here is how Reuters explains it:
A weakened President Barack Obama visits India this week to counter perceptions he has relegated the Asian power behind rivals China and Pakistan, but he may struggle to seal deals to help usher in billions of dollars of business.
Economic ties are booming but Obama's visit from Saturday to Monday may fail to live up to President Bill Clinton's 2000 trip that helped break the diplomatic ice, or President George W. Bush's visit in 2006 when a civil nuclear deal was hailed as a landmark in ties.
What do you think about the cost of Obama´s trip to India.
