"India and the US are close friends and natural partners. I am confident that our trade negotiations will pave the way for unlocking the limitless potential of the India-US partnership. Our teams are working to conclude these discussions at the earliest," PM Modi said in a post on X.

"I am also looking forward to speaking with President Trump. We will work together to secure a brighter, more prosperous future for both our people."
