A bipartisan amendment to Intelligence Authorization Act 2016 seeking expansion of trilateral national security cooperation among the US, Israel and India has been passed by the US House of Representatives.
The amendment, moved by a group of top American lawmakers, requires a report from the Director of National Intelligence on the possibilities for growing national security cooperation among the three countries. “While the US already has robust national security partnerships with India and Israel, there are many areas where opportunities exist to develop and further grow these critical relationships,” said Congressman Joe Crowley.
