Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in the US for a two-day visit, receiving a warm welcome from the Indian diaspora at Joint Andrews Base. He is staying at Blair House, the official guesthouse of the US President, decorated with the Indian tricolor. Modi is set to meet President Donald Trump to discuss trade, bilateral relations, and regional issues, including conflicts in Gaza and Ukraine. This meeting marks one of the few interactions between the leaders since Trump's return to the White House. Elon Musk is also scheduled to meet Modi to explore the potential for Starlink's entry into the Indian market. Trump has indicated plans to announce reciprocal tariffs, which may be addressed during the discussions.
