As Prime Minister Narendra Modi concluded his visit to the United States and left for New Delhi, the American media was all praises for the manner in which PM Modi dealt with US President Donald Trump, calling it a "masterclass for other leaders around the world".

PM Modi, who is one of the first few world leaders to meet Donald Trump and hold bilateral talks, was in Washington on the same day as Trump announced sweeping reciprocal tariffs on US' allies and competitors alike.

President Trump, who has called India a "tariff king" and a "massive abuser of tariffs" in the past, said he was "excited" to see PM Modi. "Prime Minister Modi is a great leader," he said, adding that "We're going to make some wonderful trade deals for India and the US."
