India, Feb. 14 -- US President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Narendra Modi held bilateral talks on Thursday and announced various measures to strengthen ties between the two countries.

The talks at the White House came just hours after Trump criticised India's business environment and outlined plans for reciprocal tariffs on countries imposing duties on US imports.

Trump said at a press conference that India plans to increase its purchase of US defence equipment, including fighter jets, and may make the US its top oil and gas supplier.

Prime Minister Modi said India aims to double trade with the US by 2030. He posted on X, calling his White House meeting with Trump "excellent" and a boost to ties.
