President Trump Confirms Progress in U.S.-India Trade Negotiations
Washington, D.C. — President Donald Trump announced that the United States and India are continuing negotiations aimed at removing trade barriers and strengthening economic cooperation between the two nations.
Trump said he expects to speak soon with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whom he described as a “very good friend,” to advance the dialogue further. He also expressed confidence that the talks would conclude successfully.
“I am confident there will be no difficulty in reaching a positive outcome for both of our great countries,” the President remarked, highlighting his belief that the discussions would deliver mutual benefits.
Trade has been a central feature of U.S.-India relations, though disputes over tariffs, market access, and regulatory standards have posed challenges. Current negotiations are expected to address these concerns while opening new opportunities for cooperation in technology, manufacturing, agriculture, and services.
Observers note that Trump’s optimistic tone reflects both governments’ recognition of the growing importance of their economic partnership. India remains one of the fastest-growing major markets, while the United States is a critical trading partner and investor. A successful agreement could deepen ties across multiple sectors and further align the two economies.
While details of the potential deal have not yet been disclosed, both Washington and New Delhi appear committed to resolving outstanding issues and reaching an arrangement that reflects their shared interests.
