External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar discussed Prime Minister Narendra Modi's response to Trump's comments on India-US relations. Our US connection is very important to PM Modi. With President Trump, PM Modi has always had a terrific relationship. At this moment, I can only say that we are engaged with the US. But I would say that,” Jaishankar said. He spoke shortly after Prime Minister Modi said he “deeply appreciates and fully reciprocates” Trump's good evaluation of India-US relations. PM Modi said X that India-US relations are “forward-looking” toward a “Comprehensive and Global Strategic Partnership”. I appreciate and share President Trump's good view of our relationship. The Prime Minister wrote that India and the US enjoy a positive and forward-looking Comprehensive and Global Strategic Partnership. At a White House announcement earlier (local time), President Trump dubbed India-US relations a “very special relationship” and said he and PM Modi would always be friends with “nothing to worry about”. However, he disapproved of “he (PM Modi) is doing” today. ANI asked US President Trump, “Are you ready to reset relations with India at this point?” Trump said, “I always will. I'll always be Modi's friend. Excellent Prime Minister. I'll always be friends, but I don't appreciate his current behavior. India and the US share a particular relationship. Nothing to worry about. We have occasional moments.”
