Prime Minister Narendra Modi has arrived in Washington, D.C., marking his first visit to the U.S. since President Donald Trump's second term began. The leaders are set to discuss defense cooperation, trade tariffs, and the recent deportation of 104 Indian nationals. Trump has previously criticized India's trade practices, labeling the nation a "very big abuser" due to high tariffs. In response, India has reduced import duties on several U.S. products and is considering further cuts. Both nations aim to strengthen strategic ties, with the U.S. viewing India as a key counterbalance to China's regional influence.
