奥巴马参加印度共和国日大游行
英语课
Rain did little to dampen the excitement around President Barack Obama's landmark 1 visit to India as thousands of troops took part in a dazzling military parade Monday where he was the guest of honor.
Obama is the first U.S. president to attend India's Republic Day, which celebrates its first constitution as an independent state, taking effect on January 26, 1950.
The U.S. president spent the first day of his 3-day visit Sunday bonding with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and sealing a clutch of deals.
Obama and Modi announced they have reached a "breakthrough" in a long-stalled nuclear power agreement.

Both sides agreed Sunday to set up a multi-million-dollar insurance pool that does not force India to change its laws.
Details are still not clear. But President Obama called Sunday's agreement an important step that shows how both sides can work together to elevate relations.
Prime Minister Modi said he is pleased India and the U.S. can cooperate commercially under Indian and international law.
At a banquet Sunday night, President Obama toasted what he called the great partnership 4 between India and the U.S., and friendship between their peoples.
