Zillar Barta Desk : US President Donald Trump has once again praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, describing him as “a great friend” and speaking positively about India. His remarks have drawn attention, particularly in the presence of Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
Trump’s comments highlighted the longstanding personal rapport between him and PM Modi, while also underlining the importance of India-US ties. Trump has previously referred to Modi as a “great friend” and praised India’s growing role on the global stage.
The remarks also put Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif in an awkward diplomatic spotlight, coming amid continued discussions over India-Pakistan relations and wider geopolitical issues.
Trump’s public appreciation of Modi is being closely watched as India and the United States continue to engage on trade, strategic cooperation, security and other areas of mutual interest.
The latest comments are likely to attract attention in both India and Pakistan, particularly because of the contrasting diplomatic messaging surrounding the two countries.
