Referring to PM Narendra Modi, Trump earlier had said, “He is a friend of mine. He’s a great gentleman." He spoke to the Indian prime minister over the weekend, when Modi told him that millions of people will welcome him at the airport in Ahmedabad. Since Modi took over as PM in 2014, several heads of state have visited Ahmedabad as part of their official tour to India, including Chinese President Xi Jinping in 2014, Japan PM Shinzo Abe in 2017, and Israel PM Benjamin Netanyahu in 2018.

The two leaders had also met in August at the G7 summit held in the French town of Biarritz. Prime Minister Modi, while interacting with the media alongside President Trump, had rejected any scope for third party mediation between India and Pakistan on Kashmir, saying the two countries can discuss and resolve all issues bilaterally and we don't want to trouble any third country. Further, India trip will be Trump's second overseas this year, after a two-day visit to Switzerland for the World Economic Forum in Davos.
