President Donald Trump and Narendra Modi to meet today, Modi supporters gather in Washington

Washington, February 14, 2025: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to meet U.S. President Donald Trump today. The meeting will take place at 2 PM local time (around 3 AM Bangladesh time). Modi is expected to bring gifts such as new business deals, tariff agreements, and potential cooperation on China, aiming to deepen the relationship with Trump.

President Trump, in his first month, has been using tariffs to negotiate new trade deals, investments, and law enforcement assistance. India is no exception, as despite a warm relationship with Modi during Trump's first term, he has labeled India as a "big tariff abuser," with tariffs on steel and aluminum particularly hurting India.

Meanwhile, Modi supporters have gathered in Washington, D.C. for this historic meeting.
