Narendra Modi-Donald Trump meet: PM did better than Angela Merkel, but played it safe like Theresa May
FirstpostWhen Prime Minister Narendra Modi met US President Donald Trump on Monday evening, he was the fifth major leader of the world to call on the newly-elected US chief executive since the changeover of power happened in January this year. When Prime Minister Narendra Modi met US president Donald Trump on Monday evening, he was the fifth major world leader to call on the newly-elected US chief executive since January’s handover of power. In a joint press conference at the White House, Trump said: “Great days lie ahead for our two peoples and our two countries.” Barely 10 days later, Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe came came calling. When the US defense secretary James Mattis visited Tokyo in the first week of February, he stumped everyone by saying that “Japan has been a model of cost-sharing, of burden-sharing.” Trump echoed the same sentiment when he said in the joint press conference with Abe that the US-Japan friendship was the “cornerstone of peace and stability in the Pacific region”. Modi was not as forthcoming in putting across the larger issues affecting India’s national interest in the public domain — as Merkel did, even if it rubbed Trump the wrong way — Modi played safe.
