New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has left for India after concluding his visit to the US during which he held high-level bilateral talks with President Donald Trump on a wide range of subjects, including trade and technology, defence and security, energy and people-to-people ties.
He held bilateral talks with US President Donald Trump.
This was Modi’s first talk with Trump since the Republican leader assumed the US presidency for a second term last month.
During the talks, India and the US decided to take a big leap in broad-basing their strategic ties in several critical areas, including defence, energy, and critical technology.
Both sides also exchanged views on regional and international developments of mutual interest.
In a post on X, Prime Minister Modi said he had an “excellent” meeting with President Trump and that their talks “will add significant momentum to the India-USA friendship!” “President Trump often talks about MAGA.
In India, we are working towards a Viksit Bharat, which in the American context translates into MIGA.
And together, the India-USA have a MEGA partnership for prosperity!” Modi tweeted.
After his talks with Modi, Trump announced that Washington is paving the way to provide New Delhi with F-35 fighter jets as part of increasing military supplies by billions of dollars.
Addressing the media on PM Modi’s US visit, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said, “PM has just concluded a very substantive and very productive visit to the US at the invitation of President Donald Trump.”
Prior to his US tour, Modi spent two days in France.
