The American leader indicated to the Prime Minister of India that he should pass him on the world’s Nobel Prize, just as Pakistan did. However, Modi’s denial was strongly denied.
The relationship between US president Donald Trump and Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi clearly worsens after Modi refuses to support the ambitions of the White House leader regarding the Nobel Peace Prize. This is stated in the publication of The New York Times published on Saturday, August 30th.
It was noted that in a telephone conversation with Modi on June 17, Trump was proud to have “resolved” the military conflict between India and Pakistan. At the same time, he mentioned the nomination for the world’s Nobel Prize from Pakistan. As the NYT interlocutors explained, “Not very subtle hints Mr. Modi has to do this.”
However, the Prime Minister of India retaliated hard. He told Trump that the United States had “had nothing to do with the end of the fire, which was agreed directly between New Delhi and Islamabad.
The publication noted that Modi’s dispute and refusal to support Trump’s ambition about the Nobel Prize has been the main factor in the destruction of the two leaders’ personal relations.
An additional voltage was created by American duties. A few weeks after this phone talk, Trump unexpectedly announced a 25 percent tariff for Indian imports. And then he imposed another 25% – for the purchase of India of Russia’s oil. Thus, the total fee is up to 50% – the highest of all our partners.
The publication note that in New Delhi these actions were noted as shame. After that, Trump and Modi didn’t talk anymore.
According to experts, recognizing the role of the United States in a conflict with Pakistan for Modi is unacceptable to politics, as it contradicts its image of a strong leader. In response, he is trying to approach China and Russia, where he plans to organize in the coming days.
Remember that in July, Trump unexpectedly called the Norway Jens Stoltenberg Minister of Finance to discuss trade duties, as well as his desire to receive the world’s Nobel Prize.
