Rahul Gandhi Accuses Modi of Silencing Trump’s Ceasefire Claims: “He Will Push Us”
Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has launched a sharp critique against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, accusing him of remaining silent on former US President Donald Trump’s claims regarding a ceasefire. Gandhi expressed concern that Modi’s inaction stems from a desire to protect his own image, even at the expense of national interests.
Gandhi Raises Concerns about Potential India-US Tariff Deal Pressure
Gandhi further suggested that this silence may be linked to potential pressure from the US regarding a tariff deal. He warned that Trump’s approach could be detrimental to India, stating, “He will push us.” This implies a concern that India might be forced to accept unfavorable terms in any future negotiations.
Allegations of Using Armed Forces for Image Management
The core of Gandhi’s accusation revolves around the alleged exploitation of the armed forces. He believes Modi is prioritizing his image over transparently addressing Trump’s claims, thereby using the military as a shield. This raises serious questions about the government’s handling of sensitive international matters and their potential impact on India’s relationship with the US.
