Modi and Trump find common ground at first meeting
When Prime Minister Narendra Modi meets US President Donald Trump on July 7 in Hamburg, Germany, for the G20 summit, there will be no need for introductions. They will meet as acquaintances who have shared three hugs, several handshakes and had a measure of each other's personalities upclose. This acquainting with Trump was the most important aspect of Modi's two-day Washington tour in June.
Trump has already met 15 of the G20 leaders. While Modi is in the list, Vladimir Putin hasn't made it yet.
