Prime Minister Narendra Modi to visit U.S. for talks with President Trump on trade, defence, and energy cooperation.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to pay a two-day visit to the U.S. from February 12 to hold talks with U.S. President Donald Trump on a range of issues including trade and defence, people familiar with the matter said on Monday (February 3, 2025).
As per the plan, Mr. Modi will travel to Washington D.C. after concluding his two-day visit to Paris, they said.
The Prime Minister is expected to land in the American capital on the evening of February 12 and he and Mr. Trump are expected to hold the talks the next day, the people said.
It would be the Prime Minister's first bilateral visit to the U.S. after Mr. Trump assumed the presidency for a second term on January 20 following his stunning electoral victory in November.
Mr. Modi will be among a very handful of foreign leaders to travel to Washington D.C. on a bilateral visit within weeks after the Trump administration came to power.
However, there is no official word yet on Mr. Modi's visit. Last week, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) said New Delhi is working with Washington for an "early" visit of PM Modi to the U.S.
The Prime Minister is travelling to Paris to attend the Artificial Intelligence Action summit on February 10 and 11.
