Ahead of Trump’s visit, there have been talks about India-U.S. signing a potential trade deal. But Trump has indicated that the talks might slow down if he did not get a good deal.
“Maybe we’ll slow down. We’ll do it after the election. I think that could happen too. So, we’ll see what happens. But we’re only making deals if they’re good deals because we’re putting America first. Whether people like it or not, we’re putting America first,” said Trump.
Earlier this week, Trump had indicated that a major trade deal between India and US may not be on the cards during his upcoming visit. The U.S. President had said that he was ‘saving the big deal’ with India for later, which will be done after U.S. Presidential elections, which are due for November 2020.
“We can have a trade deal with India. But I’m really saving the big deal for later,” Donald Trump told reporters at Joint Base Andrews on Tuesday.
