Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended congratulations to Donald Trump on becoming the 47th President of the United States, emphasizing a commitment to deepening the India-US partnership. In a message posted on X, Modi described Trump as a “friend” and expressed eagerness to build on past collaboration.
“Heartiest congratulations, my friend @realDonaldTrump, on your historic election victory. I look forward to renewing our collaboration to strengthen the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership. Together, let’s work for global peace, stability, and prosperity,” Modi shared.
Modi and Trump strengthened ties through major events like “Howdy, Modi!” and “Namaste Trump,” focusing on shared strategic priorities.
Though trade tensions surfaced during Trump’s first term, particularly with tariffs, both leaders sought fairer agreements. Their cooperation extended into health during the Covid-19 pandemic, with India supplying hydroxychloroquine to the US, and America later providing aid during India’s crisis.
With this latest message, Modi aims to continue strengthening ties with Trump’s administration, focusing on shared interests and global stability.
