President Trump travels to Ohio with Australian PM Morrison and to Texas with Indian PM Modi in bid to strengthen ties
Trump said Modi invited him to the rally – one of the largest US gatherings of the Indian diaspora in history – when they met last month in France, and Trump seemed to explain his decision to attend by saying "I love India."
Trump is also scheduled to meet this week with Pakistani leader Imran Khan, who recently solicited the president's help mediating the Pakistan-India conflict over Kashmir. India's government has stripped the disputed Himalayan region of its semi-autonomy and launched a security crackdown last month. The US and India are discussing ways to negotiate at least a partial trade deal, which would let the president score a victory as he campaigns for reelection in November 2020. A partial deal could include Washington reinstating India's special tariff status in exchange for concessions related to access to Indian markets, possibly in dairy and medical devices. Other issues are thwarting efforts to sign a larger trade deal.
Modi said that while Trump has called himself a "tough negotiator," he has learned a few things from Trump about the art of making deals. After the speeches, Modi asked Trump to walk hand-in-hand around the perimeter of the stadium floor, looking up to the stands of cheering fans.
