Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is meeting and holding a press conference with President Trump at the White House Thursday, as India hopes to avoid the brunt of Mr. Trump's tariff war.
Trade and tariffs are expected to top the agenda. Modi's visit comes the same afternoon that Mr. Trump signed off on reciprocal tariffs on imports from nations that impose higher tariffs on U.S., and as the president's increased tariffs on steel and aluminum imports go into effect.
The U.S. is India's largest trading partner, and India is the United States' 10th-largest trading partner, according to U.S. Census Bureau data and Indian government data.
