Donald Trump has praised Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Xi Jinping, naming them among the world leaders he admires most. In a recent interview, Trump described PM Modi as a ‘very tough cookie’, a ‘tough negotiator’, and a ‘killer’ who ‘looks like an angel’. He also referred to Xi Jinping as ‘all business’. The remarks follow Trump sharing an India Today magazine cover on his social media profile. India Today’s Foreign Affairs Editor Geeta Mohan analyzed the statements, noting Trump’s transactional approach to diplomacy. She highlighted that while the praise is notable, its true value depends on whether the United States translates these sentiments into favorable trade policies and eases pressure on India. The discussion also pointed out past instances where the US announced tariffs or altered military command names shortly before bilateral meetings, emphasizing the need to view such diplomatic flattery with caution until concrete commitments are made on trade and strategic partnerships.
