The U.S. Treasury Secretary tried to downplay the importance of the meeting between Russian, Chinese, and Indian leaders at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit

Russian State News Agency, Washington, September 2 - U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bensons attempted to downplay the significance of the meeting between Russian, Chinese, and Indian leaders during the Shanghai Cooperation Organization summit, calling it a showy event.

He said: "This is an old meeting called the Shanghai Cooperation Organization. I think it's largely a showy event... After all, India is the world's most populous democratic country. Their values are closer to ours."

In assessing the negotiations between Washington and New Delhi on trade relations, Bensons admitted that the discussions have been slow, but expressed hope that the two governments could resolve the existing differences between them.
