NEW DELHI: Saying he enjoyed good relations with both Prime Minister Imran Khan and Modi, US President Trump reiterated his offer to mediate between both countries again on the issue of Kashmir.
Speaking to media, the US president said that he had good relations with Prime Minister Imran Khan and once again, repeated the offer to mediate between India and Pakistan on the issue of Kashmir.
In response to a question, Trump said that he and Modi "talked a lot about Pakistan".
"I have a very good relationship with the prime minister of Pakistan," he said, stating that his relationship with both Modi and PM Imran was "very good".
Trump said that if there was anything he could do to mediate between India and Pakistan on the issue of Kashmir. "Kashmir has been a thorn in a lot of people's sides for a long time and there are two sides to every story," he said.
In response to a question, Trump said that he discussed the issue of religious freedom in India, saying that he got a very 'powerful answer' from the Indian prime minister.
"We talked about religious liberty for a long time, in front of a lot of people and I had a very, very powerful answer from him [Modi]," he said.
"You have been criticised for your policies against Muslims, so were you in apposition to talk about the current Indian polices,” asked a reporter. To which the US president replied: “I won the travel ban, and we use it where we think it is necessary not based on a religion. We won it in the Supreme Court and we bar those people from travelling to our country who might hurt our citizens,” he said.
