Earlier, Trump said that he spoke with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi focused primarily on trade issues. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office, Trump said, "We talked about a lot of things, but mostly the world of trade." He also repeated that India would not be purchasing significant quantities of Russian oil in the future. He praised Modi as "a great person" and "a great friend," recalling his years-long relationship with the PM Modi.

Talking about the China tariff situation, he said, "... Right now, as of November 1st, China will have about 155% tariffs put on it. I don't think it's sustainable for them. I want to be nice to China. But China has been very rough with us over the years because we had presidents that weren't smart from a business standpoint." He also addressed the Middle East situation and said, "We are forging peace all over the world... We're getting everybody to get along. I just got a call from the Middle East. We're doing very well there. We have many countries signed on to peace in the Middle East, and nobody thought they'd ever see that happening.
