The United States has described Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's recent visit to that country as 'very good' and said that New Delhi and Washington moved forward on important issues.

"The two leaders had a very good meet. President George W Bush appreciated the call from Dr Singh after he had returned to India expressing his deep appreciation for the hospitality that the president and Mrs Bush showed," White House press secretary Scott McClellan told reporters in Washington on Monday.

"We were able to move forward on some important priorities. That was all listed in the joint statement that we put out," he said.
