Trump said that he discussed the issue of religious freedom with Modi during his comprehensive talks and that the Indian leader wants people to have this freedom.

He also said that talked about his country''s peace deal with the Taliban with Modi, and said that India will like to see it happen. Trump described Modi as a "terrific" leader and India as a "tremendous

country".

"We did talk about religious freedom. Prime Minister Modi wants people to have religious freedom in India...If you look back India has worked hard for religious freedom," Trump said.
