Donald Trump
Washington, March 28
A day after US President Donald Trump spoke by phone to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the White House on Tuesday said Trump is looking forward to playing host to a visit by Modi to Washington later this year. Trump also expressed support for Modi’s economic reform agenda.
This is the third telephonic conversation between the two leaders after Trump’s electoral victory in November last year. “President Donald J Trump spoke with Prime Minister Narendra Modi of India to congratulate him on the outcome of India’s recent state-level elections,” the White House said in a statement.
“President Trump expressed support for the Prime Minister’s economic reform agenda and emphasised his great respect for the people of India,” it said.
