US wants India to create jobs in America

As the debate on outsourcing rages, the United States is of the view that India can create jobs in America taking advantage of its fair tax policy. US Ambassador to India Timothy J Roemer also sought to downplay concerns that President Barack Obama was targeting American companies having operations in India ever since he called such businesses tax evaders. Talking to reporters in Bangalore, he said, there are some companies that try to take advantage of US law, not in India and they try to manipulate US law for the most part and create tax havens in other places in the world. He said, the US President is trying to target them and go after. Also speaking in the context of outsourcing to India, Roemer said the US also believes very, very deeply in regard to trade issue. Meanwhile, he strongly backed US solar technology firms initiating and expanding their exports to India. A trade mission of 15 US solar companies is currently visiting Bangalore. The mission is headed by Acting Assistant Secretary for Manufacturing and Service, Mary Saunders.
