He said part of the reason he was promoting the fact that the deals were going to create 50,000 jobs was to tell citizens in the US that it was not a one-way street.

“Whenever I’m asked about Indians taking away our jobs, I want to say, you know what… they’ve just created 50,000 jobs…” Obama said during his joint press conference with Manmohan Singh.
