US President Donald Trump on Thursday offered to sell state-of-the-art fighter jets to India as he and Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to ramp up trade, rekindling a bond that defies the new US administration's punitive approach to much of the world.
Modi described the fellow nationalist as a friend and told him he was adopting a take on his "Make America Great Again" slogan.
"Starting this year, we'll be increasing military sales to India by many billions of dollars," Trump told a joint news conference with Modi.
"We're also paving the way to ultimately provide India with the F-35 stealth fighters," Trump said.
