Recently, Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated the newly elected US President Donald Trump on his election victory, which Trump also accepted with an open heart. Trump lavished admiration on PM Modi and India on this occasion. In addition to praising India’s might and progress, Trump called Prime Minister Modi “magnificent”.
According to sources, both leaders talked about working together for world peace. There are suspicions that India and US relations will become even stronger under Trump’s rule. Following the triumph, US President Donald Trump said that Prime Minister Modi was among the first international leaders he spoke with.
In a tweet, PM Modi said that he had a “good conversation” with Trump, whom he described as his “friend”. He said that he is looking forward to working with Trump again to promote India-US relations in various fields including defense and technology.
On his historic election victory, he tweeted, “Warm congratulations to my friend @realDonaldTrump.” I look forward to strengthening the India-US Comprehensive Global and Strategic Partnership and renewing our cooperation as you build on the achievements of your previous tenure. Together, let’s work toward the betterment of our people and advance global peace, stability, and prosperity.
Trump created history as he became the first president in 132 years to win a non-consecutive term in the White House, defeating Vice President Kamala Harris, who was vying to become the first woman president of the world’s oldest democracy. Trump defeated former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in 2016, while in 2020 he lost to Joe Biden.
The figures announced by the Associated Press up to 10:30 p.m. showed that Trump had 277 electoral votes and Harris had 224. With wins in swing states including Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, and Pennsylvania, Trump—the oldest person in US history to be elected president—surpassed the halfway point of 270. Additionally, the president-elect was ahead in crucial states including Arizona, Michigan, and Nevada, according to AP predictions.
