Trump Says US To Sell State-Of-Art F-35 Fighter Jets To India

Washington: US President Donald Trump on Thursday offered to sell state-of-the-art fighter jets to India as he and Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to ramp up trade, rekindling a bond that defies the new US administration’s punitive approach to much of the world. PM Modi, only the fourth world leader to visit the White House since Trump’s return, described the fellow nationalist as a friend and told him he was adopting a take on his “Make America Great Again” slogan. Trump said that he found a “special bond” with PM Modi and India and, in an uncharacteristic if ironic show of humility, complimented PM Modi as being a “much tougher negotiator” than he is.
