Donald Trump Names Two Greatest Leaders He Likes the Most, One of Them Is PM Modi

Trump also said a forthcoming book portrays him as possibly the most powerful man in history.

  • At the G7 Summit in France, President Donald Trump identified Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chinese President Jinping as the world leaders he most admires, shortly after their first in-person meeting in more than 16 months.
  • In an interview with Axios, Trump reflected on global power dynamics and leadership, describing Modi as a 'very tough cookie' while assessing influence among world leaders.
  • Trump expressed regret that Russian President Vladimir Putin is not part of the G7 and recalled French President Emmanuel Macron hosting a dinner at the Palace of Versailles, describing it as 'my weakness'.
  • During the interview, Trump claimed he discovered 'no limits' to his power following the US-Iran confrontation, adding that Israel has 'a lot of respect for me' and will 'do as I say'.
  • Admiration for Modi comes as the United States and India continue efforts to deepen engagement, despite navigating differences over tariffs, immigration-related issues, and India's energy purchases from Russia.
