Will Trump Visit India?

Last month, Trump said that he plans to visit India soon, praising PM Modi as a “great man” and his “friend.” Responding to a question during a press conference at the White House on November 6, Trump said the trade negotiations with India are going “very well.”

“He’s a friend of mine, and we speak, and he wants me to go there. We’ll figure that out. I’ll go…He’s a great man and I’ll be going,” he added.

When asked if he would travel to India next year, Trump said, “it could be, yeah.” The US President also remembered his last visit to India in 2020, saying, “I had a great trip there with the Prime Minister.”
