External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar recently remarked that while many nations may feel uneasy following Donald Trump's election as U.S. President, India is not among them. Speaking at the Aditya Birla 25th Silver Jubilee Scholarship Program in Mumbai, Jaishankar emphasized that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has successfully developed relationships with multiple U.S. presidents, showcasing India's stable diplomatic ties.

"When he first went to Washington, Barack Obama was in office, then it was Donald Trump, and later Joe Biden," Jaishankar observed, highlighting Modi’s ability to build rapport with diverse U.S. leaders. "There’s something very natural in the way he forms these connections," he added. “I know several countries are anxious about the U.S. today, but, truthfully, India is not one of them.”

Jaishankar also noted that Prime Minister Modi was among the first global leaders to reach out to Trump after his electoral win was announced. Modi congratulated Trump on November 5, expressing eagerness to work closely together.

According to sources, during this call, Trump spoke highly of Modi, calling him a remarkable leader admired worldwide, and he referred to India as an “incredible” nation. Both leaders agreed on a shared commitment to promoting global peace.

In a tweet, Modi described his conversation with Trump as “excellent,” referring to him as a “friend” and expressing his enthusiasm for strengthening India-U.S. relations across various areas, including defense and technology.
