Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi described the U.S. and India (a country upon which Apple is very much focused) as “close friends and natural partners,” expressing optimism that future trade negotiations could unleash “limitless potential.” In an early Wednesday post on X, Modi stated that both nations are striving to resolve trade discussions “at the earliest.” He also looked forward to engaging with President Donald Trump. “We will work together to secure a brighter, more prosperous future for both our people,” Modi wrote.

Christina Shaw for FOXBusiness:

Trump made a similar post earlier in the day praising Modi as a “very good friend” and confirming that the two countries were in negotiations. He added that he expected a favorable outcome in the upcoming weeks.

The talks mark a significant shift after months of heightened trade tensions, with both countries imposing tariffs and counter-tariffs…

[U]nresolved disputes in agriculture, energy, and continue to leave negotiations at a crossroads and are the biggest hurdles to sealing a comprehensive deal.

The exchange highlights the countries’ determination to move forward as both leaders face political and economic challenges in their home countries. Modi and Trump signal mutual optimism for US-India trade negotiations moving ahead together.


MacDailyNews Take: Sounds promising. The U.S.-India trade agreement will be a very big deal to get inked, for both countries as well as for Apple, and, of course, the trade deal with China.

  1. Modi a rank opportunist and Putin ASS KISSER. STOP THE TECH VISAS AND DESTROYING AMERICAN JOBS! We do not need tens of thousands of Indians coming to the US and taking jobs from our own people, and we do not need to support a Putin ass kissing, oil buying, death machine supporting backstabber whatsoever.
