Modi visits Washington to strengthen ties with Trump amid trade concerns

Prime Minister Narendra Modi is visiting Washington, where he aims to strengthen ties with President Donald Trump amid concerns over tariffs and trade imbalances. Modi seeks to avoid new tariffs that have affected other countries. During the visit, Modi plans to discuss defense, technology, and energy collaboration. India has already lowered some tariffs on U.S. products and accepted the return of migrants as part of a U.S. crackdown. India's role in U.S. strategy against China is also a focus, especially as the two nations navigate their relationship. Modi's government is looking to enhance defense cooperation with the U.S. while managing its ties with Russia.
