US President Donald Trump showered praise on Prime Minister Narendra Modi during their interaction on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in France, describing the Indian leader as a “good looking guy" and a “tough negotiator."
The comments came as Trump and Modi met during the summit in Evian-les-Bains, where leaders are discussing global economic challenges, security issues and geopolitical developments.
Speaking about the Prime Minister, Trump highlighted Modi’s negotiating abilities and political acumen, suggesting that the Indian leader is far tougher at the negotiating table than his calm public image might suggest.
“He’s a tough negotiator," Trump said, while also complimenting Modi’s appearance and personality.

Long-Standing Rapport
The latest praise is in line with Trump’s past remarks about Modi, whom he has frequently described as a strong and effective leader.
The two leaders have shared a warm personal rapport over the years, marked by high-profile events such as the “Howdy Modi" rally in Houston in 2019 and the “Namaste Trump" event in Ahmedabad in 2020.
Trump has often cited those events as examples of the close ties between India and the United States and his personal friendship with the Indian Prime Minister.
Focus On Bilateral Ties
The Modi-Trump interaction comes at a time when New Delhi and Washington are looking to deepen cooperation in trade, defence, technology and energy.
Officials are also discussing a range of global issues, including developments in West Asia, supply chain resilience and economic cooperation.
Trump’s remarks drew attention at the summit, adding another chapter to the public admiration the US President has frequently expressed for Prime Minister Modi on the global stage.
