Thea Rozman Kendler, assistant secretary for Export Administration of US Department of Commerce, met Indian government officials and industry to discuss dual-use export controls issues.

The dialogue, she said, would prove a building block for the Initiative on Critical and Emerging Technology (iCET).
“Robust strategic trade controls enable us to share technology that we can’t share with other,..” she added
