(26 Jun 2017) President Donald Trump is kicking off an afternoon of meetings at the White House with India's prime minister.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was greeted by Trump outside the South Portico of the White House.
The two are expected to discuss a range of issues, from trade and climate change to opportunities for partnership on security issues.
Trump has thus far focused on outreach to China as he looks to Beijing to rein in nuclear-armed North Korea. But Washington and New Delhi share concerns about China's rise as a military power.
Trump and Modi are expected to issue joint statements in the Rose Garden following their meetings.
Trump will later host the Indian delegation for dinner, making Modi the first world leader to receive a White House dinner in his honor.
