The president acknowledged the strength of India’s democracy and the economic progress achieved under the leadership of Modi, whom Trump described as his “true friend and praised his rise to power beginning as a poor tea-seller in India.
“Everybody loves him, but I will tell you this, he is very tough,” Trump said.

“India’s rise as a prosperous and independent nation is an example to every nation all over the world and one of the most outstanding achievements of our century.”
The president also promised to continue fighting the threat of “radical Islamic terrorism,” working with both Pakistan and India to crack down on terrorists.

Trump praised India’s movie culture in Bollywood, noting they produced nearly 2,000 movies a year and praised their cricket players, religious festivals, and their space program.

“They are titans of business; the biggest, the best pioneers of science; masters of the art; and innovation of technology like few people have been able to see no matter where you go anywhere in this universe,” he said.
