Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said that he deeply appreciates and fully reciprocates President Trump’s sentiments and positive assessment of India-US ties.

“India and the US have a very positive and forward-looking Comprehensive and Global Strategic Partnership,” Modi added.

Modi posted on X, “Deeply appreciate and fully reciprocate President Trump’s sentiments and positive assessment of our ties. India and the US have a very positive and forward-looking Comprehensive and Global Strategic Partnership.”

This comes after US President Donald Trump said that he will always be friends with Modi and called him a great Prime Minister.

During a press briefing he said, “I will always be friends with Modi, he is a great Prime Minister. India and the United States have a special relationship. There is nothing to worry about.”

He further stated, “I don’t think we have” (President Trump when asked about his Truth Social post about “losing India”) “I get along very well with Modi as you know, he was here a couple of months ago, we went to the Rose Garden.”

Earlier, when Modi was visiting China, Trump wrote on his social media, “Looks like we’ve lost India and Russia to deepest, darkest, China. May they have a long and prosperous future together!”

The positive exchange between the two leaders suggests that the door for a recalibration of ties between the two nations was still open despite the barrage of incendiary remarks against India by Trump and his officials.
