Trump praised Modi as “tough as hell” before performing an “insensitive imitation” of the Indian leader.
He asserted that he ended a four-day conflict between India and Pakistan by threatening 250 percent tariff hikes on both countries.
India has refuted Trump's claim of personally intervening to stop the May conflict, with reports suggesting Modi avoided him to prevent such statements.
Social media users largely reacted negatively to Trump's remarks, describing them as “insanity on international display” and criticizing his “dubious claims.”
