The much awaited two day trip of Donald Trump has finally commenced and the President was in Ahmedabad for the first leg of the visit to India. Let us have a look at some of the key quotes from Trump's Namaste Event speech at the Motera stadium.
India will hold a very special place in our heart.
PM Modi is an exceptional leader, who works day and night for India.
We will always remember this remarkable hospitality. PM Modi started out as 'tea wallah', he worked as a tea seller everybody loves him but I will tell you this, he is very tough negotiator.
Five months ago the United States welcomed your great Prime Minister at a giant football stadium in Texas and today India welcomes us at the world's largest cricket stadium right here in Ahmedabad.
America loves India, America respects India and America will always be a faithful and loyal friend to the Indian people.As we continue to build our defence cooperation, the US looks forward to providing India with some of the best & most feared military equipment on the planet. We make the greatest weapons ever made. We make the best and we are dealing now with India.
PM Modi you are not just the pride of Gujarat, you are living proof that with hard work & devotion, Indians can accomplish anything at all, anything they want. The Prime Minister is a moving story of an incredible rise, says Donald Trump.
