U.S. President Donald Trump and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi signal potential progress in trade negotiations after prior diplomatic tensions. Optimistic social media exchanges hint at resetting strained ties. Despite previous setbacks, both nations express optimism towards achieving a mutually beneficial trade deal, but challenges remain.
In a recent development, U.S. President Donald Trump announced continued negotiations aimed at dismantling trade barriers with India. This announcement came amidst expectations of an imminent dialogue with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, suggesting a pivotal shift following recent diplomatic strains.
Modi echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the robust friendship between Washington and New Delhi. His affirmation that both governments are diligently working to expedite the trade talks fostered positive market reactions, with Indian shares seeing an uptick.
