Prime Minister Narendra Modi is traveling to the United States from France. Tomorrow, he will meet US President Donald Trump at the White House. It has been five years since Modi and Trump last had a face-to-face meeting. However, during his election campaign, President Trump praised Modi's leadership. This meeting is expected to not only shape India-US relations but also have a significant impact on Trump’s next four-year term.

Bilateral relations between India and the US continue to strengthen. For decades, every US president in office has worked towards deepening ties with India. The US has granted India a major defense partnership status, which prioritizes the purchase of advanced military technologies and weapon systems. Recently, during an air show in India, the US participated with F-35 fighter jets, showcasing the growing defense cooperation between the two nations.

During this meeting, discussions may include the US providing India with more drones, fighter jets, and advanced missile technology. Modi is also expected to raise topics related to trade, economic cooperation, H-1B visas, and Green Cards. Both countries might take decisions to enhance collaboration in semiconductors, the digital economy, and artificial intelligence (AI).American companies are likely to boost their investments in India as part of the "Make in India" initiative.
