October 10, 2025

Prime Minister Narendra Modi Thursday congratulated US President Donald Trump on the “success” of the first phase of a US-brokered peace plan for Gaza as he hailed the American leader for his efforts to end hostilities.

PM Modi speaks to President Trump

Modi said this during a phone conversation with Trump amid continuing strain in ties between India and the US over Washington slapping a whopping 50 per cent tariffs on Indian goods, including 25 per cent levies for India’s purchase of Russian crude oil.

In a post on X, Modi said he and Trump also reviewed the “good progress” achieved in the trade negotiations.

“Spoke to my friend, President Trump and congratulated him on the success of the historic Gaza peace plan,” Modi said on social media.

“Also reviewed the good progress achieved in trade negotiations. Agreed to stay in close touch over the coming weeks,” he said. It was the second phone call between Modi and Trump in the last over three weeks.
