India Skips Joint Press Conference with Trump Over Concerns About His Unpredictable Conduct
India chose not to hold a joint media briefing with US President Donald Trump after his meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in France, citing worries about Trump's erratic behavior.
Following the bilateral meeting of Modi and Trump on the sidelines of the G7 summit in Evian-les-Bains, Indian officials decided against a combined press event. Government sources told PTI that apprehensions about Trump's unpredictable conduct drove the decision. The move reflects New Delhi's cautious diplomatic stance toward the US leader, and no joint statement was issued.
