US EditionVP Vance’s Global Travels Are a Mix of Diplomacy, Dealmaking, Soft Power and Family Time
- Vice President JD Vance traveled internationally in early 2025, visiting India, Italy, Greenland, and Europe as part of diplomatic and cultural engagements.
- These trips followed prior high-level diplomacy under the Trump administration and aimed to promote U.S. Interests and soft diplomacy alongside family time.
- During his visit to India in April, Vance met Prime Minister Narendra Modi and announced a framework for a U.S.-India trade agreement while engaging in cultural visits like the Taj Mahal.
- Vance traveled with his wife, Usha, and their three young children, blending official duties with family activities, which analysts say supports his domestic political image.
- These trips reinforced U.S. Global partnerships and underscored the vice presidency's role in diplomacy, though some actions, like closing the Taj Mahal, attracted criticism.
