Donald Trump likely to invite PM Modi for White House meet

In what comes as a significant development for India-US ties, a report claims that incoming US President Donald Trump has discussed with his advisors regarding his possible India visit after he assumes presidency,  a media report said on Saturday. The report also adds that Trump wants to visit China before his visit to India. 

India is set to hold the QUAD summit, which will see leaders



of Japan, India, the US, and Australia converge on a single platform. Trump's visit is likely to take place in April this year or in the fall later this year. It is also expected that PM Modi may get an invitation from US President Donald Trump to visit the US for a White House meeting this spring.

Notably, in the run-up to the election, Trump had threatened to impose additional tariffs on China.
