A German newspaper report claimed that Donald Trump called Prime Minister Narendra Modi four times amid the tariff controversy, but he did not pick up the phone. Germany’s famous newspaper Frankfurter Algemine Siteung wrote, “There are indications that Prime Minister Modi is feeling humiliated.” According to the newspaper, not talking to Trump shows how “angry” PM Modi he is. The report has not revealed the source of this claim. Moneycontrol Hindi also could not independently confirm these claims.
This incident has happened at a time when the US has imposed a huge tariff of 50% on India. The reason for this is the hurdle in the trade agreement and India’s decision to buy oil from Russia.
Recently, a report in Nikkei Asia of Japan also claimed that Prime Minister Modi had postponed President Trump’s phone call, which “disappointed”.
The TOI report quoted a diplomat posted in the US as saying that PM Modi’s style is not to have a sensitive conversation on the phone. However, the diplomat did not confirm the German newspaper report as correct or wrong.
Earlier, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar had confirmed that there was no talk between PM Modi and Trump between April 22 and June 17.
According to the Ministry of External Affairs, the two leaders spoke for the first time after Operation Sindoor on 17 June. The dialogue took place after the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan became effective.
During a 35 -minute conversation, PM Modi informed Trump about Operation Sindoor and India’s anti -terrorism efforts, and made it clear that India does not accept third party mediation on security matters with Pakistan.
In the last four months, Trump has repeatedly claimed that he has postponed a possible nuclear war between India and Pakistan by threatening to stop trade. Along with these claims, they often give arbitrary figures about how close the two countries were, how many jet aircraft were demolished and how many wars were allegedly stopped.
