Harris and Biden will also each meet separately on Friday with leaders of the so-called Quad, which includes Japan and Australia, in addition to India. Indian Americans are one of the fastest-growing political forces in the United States. Harris, whose mother was born in India, attracted donations, votes and attention from Indian Americans during her political rise to the U.S. Senate and the vice presidency. Some Indians and Indian Americans would like to see Harris, whose father was born in Jamaica, identify more closely with her mother’s traditions. Harris met with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who also met with Biden, on Tuesday.
