Donald Trump in India: Key deals signed on defence but not on trade - Published India and the US have signed defence, energy and telecoms deals but failed to reach a much-talked about trade accord. President Donald Trump hailed a "very productive visit" but said he would keep working with Indian PM Narendra Modi for "a comprehensive trade deal". The US is one of India's biggest trade partners. The two leaders hope the visit will mend a rift over tariffs. Mr Trump's visit to Delhi has been marred by the deadliest religious unrest in the capital for decades. Asked about the violence, he told reporters that the incident was "up to India" to handle. However, he said he had brought up the issue of religious freedom in the country and was impressed by Mr Modi's response. "He [Modi] was incredible, he told me- 'In India we have worked very hard to have religious freedoms'," Mr Trump said. Ten people, including a policeman, have been killed and about 150 injured in protests against a controversial new citizenship law, which critics say discriminates against Muslims. Mr Modi's Hindu nationalist government denies this, saying the law only seeks to give amnesty to persecuted minorities. Correspondents say the timing of the unrest is an embarrassment to Mr Modi and the violence has taken the spotlight away from Mr Trump's visit. After talks on Tuesday, the US president and Mr Modi acknowledged they had not been able to sign a trade deal, but announced that negotiations would continue. "We also agreed to open negotiations on a big trade deal. At the global level, our relationship is depended on the similar democratic values we share," Mr Modi said. But deals in other areas were announced. India is to buy attack helicopters and other US military equipment worth $3bn, Mr Trump said. They also announced co-operation in fighting radical Islamist terrorism and deepening energy ties, as well as pledging to work together to make 5G technology safer. As part of the deals announced, US firm Exxon Mobil and Indian Oil have signed an agreement to help India import more Liquefied Natural Gas (LPG). Bilateral trade between the two countries totalled $142.6bn (£110.3bn) in 2018. But in June 2019, the US ended preferential trade status for India. India imposed retaliatory tariffs on 28 US products, causing a diplomatic rift between the two countries. But Mr Trump's visit has helped improve relations, and cement what appears to be a strong personal rapport between him and Mr Modi. Mr Trump's two-day India visit has been high on optics. Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of Ahmedabad city in Gujarat, the home state of Mr Modi, to welcome him on Monday. The leaders later addressed a crowd of more than 100,000 people at the Motera cricket stadium. Mr Trump ended the day with a city to the iconic Taj Mahal. "The last two days, especially yesterday at the stadium, it was a great honour for me. People were there maybe more for you [PM Narendra Modi] than for me... Every time I mentioned you, they cheered more. People love you here," President Trump said.

डोनल्ड ट्रम्प: अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति भारतको पहिलो औपचारिक भ्रमणमा, पाए भव्य स्वागत अमेरिकी राष्ट्रपति डोनल्ड ट्रम्पले भारतको आफ्नो पहिलो औपचारिक भ्रमण गुजरात राज्यबाट आरम्भ गरेका छन। त्यहाँ उनको भव्य सार्वजनिक स्वागत गरिएको थियो। विमानस्थलमा राष्ट्रपति ट्रम्पलाई भारतका प्रधानमन्त्री नरेन्द्र मोदीले कसिलो अङ्कमाल गरेर स्वागत गरेका थिए। ती दुई नेताले महात्मा गान्धीले १३ वर्ष बिताएका सावरमती आश्रमको भ्रमण गरे। राष्ट्रपति ट्रम्पको भ्रमण संसारका दुई सबैभन्दा ठूला प्रजातान्त्रिक देशबीचको सम्बन्धलाई अझ गहिरो बनाउनमा केन्द्रित हुने बताइएको छ। ट्रम्पलाई स्वागत गर्न गुजरातमा हजारौँ मानिसहरू सडकका दायाँबायाँ उभिएका दृश्य देखिएको थियो। ट्रम्पले यात्रा गर्ने बाटोमा दुई नेताका तस्बिर सहितका ठूलाठूला होर्डिङ बोर्डहरू टाँगिएका छन्। व्यापार ठूलो तामझामका साथ भ्रमणको आयोजना भइरहेको भए पनि यो भ्रमणका क्रममा दुई देशबीचको व्यापार सहमति भने होला जस्तो देखिँदैन। अमेरिका भारतको सबैभन्दा महत्त्वपूर्ण व्यापारिक साझेदार हो। सन् २०१८ मा द्विपक्षीय व्यापारको आकार १४२.६ अर्ब डलर थियो। अमेरिकाको भारतसँग २५.२ अर्ब डलरको वस्तु तथा सेवासँग सम्बन्धित व्यापारघाटा विद्यमान थियो। दुई देशबीच बढ्दो राजनीतिक तथा रणनीतिक निकटताका माझ व्यापारको विषयलाई लिएर भने दुई देशबीच तनावको स्थिति छ। राष्ट्रपति ट्रम्पले भारतले आयातमा लगाएको करलाई "अस्वीकार्य" भनेका छन् र उनले भारतलाई "कर लगाउनेहरूको राजा" समेत भनेका छन्। सन् २०१९ मा अमेरिकाले भारतलाई दिँदै आएको विशेष सुविधायुक्त व्यापार सहुलियतको अन्त्य गरेको थियो। त्यस्तो कदमपछि भारतले विभिन्न २८ वटा अमेरिकी उत्पादनको आयातमा जबाफी कर लगाएको थियो र दुई देशबीच कूटनीतिक विवाद उत्पन्न भएको थियो।
