India reacted after an old video of Donald Trump speaking about Narendra Modi resurfaced on social media. In the clip from October 2025, the US President joked that he did not want to “destroy his political career” while praising the Indian Prime Minister. Some users shared the remark as a threat. The Ministry of External Affairs said it would review the matter. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, “If such a video exists, whether it is true or false, we will take appropriate action.” The comment was made during trade tensions linked to tariffs and Russian oil purchases. Officials said the line was spoken in a humorous context. (PC: India Today)
