Trump’s Response to the Indian Reporter
As the journalist directed the question toward Trump, with PM Modi seated beside him, the US President initially responded, "You're going to have to go louder." When the question was repeated, Trump remarked, "I can’t understand a word he’s saying. It’s the accent—it’s a little bit tough for me."
This was not the first time Trump made such remarks. During a prior press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, he similarly declined to respond to a question, citing difficulty in understanding the accent of a journalist from Afghanistan. Addressing the female reporter, he remarked, "It’s a beautiful voice and a beautiful accent. The only problem is I can’t understand a word you’re saying. But I just say this—good luck, live in peace."
Modi’s Engagements with Business Leaders
Aside from diplomatic discussions, PM Modi also held meetings with prominent business figures during his visit. He met with Indian-American entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, as well as Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk. Their discussions focused on advancements in space technology, mobility, and innovation.
Elon Musk was accompanied by his three young children when he arrived at Blair House to meet PM Modi. The children were present during the discussions, offering a rare glimpse into the personal side of the high-profile meeting.
