"PM Modi Ensured We Negotiated From Strength," Says Piyush Goyal On India-US Trade Deal
In an exclusive conversation with NDTV’s Rahul Kanwal, Commerce Minsiter Piyush Goyal dismissed suggestions that the trade talks were stressful, crediting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership for giving the negotiating team confidence and clarity. He said India negotiated from a position of strength with national interest firmly at the centre of every discussion. According to the minister, PM Modi’s guidance ensured that the final deal protected India’s priorities and that the team never felt anxious despite global uncertainty. The message from the government, this was a calm, confident negotiation, not a pressured compromise.
