Modi Skipped Summit Due to Worries Trump Would Mention Pakistan

In a surprising move, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi skipped a regional summit in Malaysia, avoiding a potential clash with US President Donald Trump over the issue of Pakistan. Modi's decision was influenced by the ongoing state election campaign and concerns that Trump's comments could harm his political standing. Despite Trump's claims of brokering peace between India and Pakistan, India remains skeptical, and trade relations between the US and India remain strained. Modi is considering a meeting with Trump at a global summit in Johannesburg, but only if the diplomatic climate improves.The Daily News Now! — Every city. Every story. AI-powered. Hosted on Acast.
