India, US trying to arrange quick meeting between Modi, Trump, sources say
NEW DELHI – Indian and U.S. diplomats are trying to arrange a February meeting between Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and U.S. President Donald Trump in Washington, two Indian sources familiar with the discussions told Reuters.
India, a strategic partner of the United States in its efforts against China, wants to strengthen its trade relations with the United States and make it easier for its citizens to obtain skilled worker visas, two subjects which will be on the agenda of the day if the leaders meet. , the sources said.
However, it is not certain whether the leaders will meet in February. Sources said a bilateral meeting was possible later this year, including when leaders of the Quad group of India, Australia, Japan and the United States would meet in a summit annual organized by India.
Trump's return to the White House has raised concerns about imposing tariffs on India, a country he said has high tariffs on American goods and has indicated he is favorable to reciprocity.
But the sources said New Delhi was willing to offer some concessions to Washington and open to offering incentives to attract more US investment.
Trump visited India in February 2020 during his previous term. He was later cheered by more than 100,000 Indians at a cricket stadium in Ahmedabad, Modi's political home, where he promised India “an incredible trade deal.”
In 2019, Trump held a “Howdy Modi” rally with Modi in Houston, attracting 50,000 people, mostly Indian-Americans.
The United States is India's largest trading partner and bilateral trade between the two countries exceeded $118 billion in 2023/24, with India posting a trade surplus of $32 billion.
Other topics of discussion between the two leaders would include strengthening partnerships in technology and defense, the sources said.
Migration would be another topic of discussion, as Trump has pledged to crack down on illegal immigration but said he is open to legal migration of skilled workers.
India, known for its large pool of IT professionals, many of whom work around the world, accounts for the bulk of H-1B skilled worker visas issued by the United States.
Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, who attended Trump's inauguration on Monday, met US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and they discussed concerns over “irregular migration” on Tuesday, the Department of Foreign Affairs said. American state. REUTERS
