Uttar Pradesh Congress President Ajay Rai on Wednesday underlined that Prime Minister Narendra Modi's telephone conversation with US President Donald Trump is not a matter to be discussed and said that the people and countries will know it by themselves.
He also said that "nothing can be more shameful" than the invitation of the US President to Pakistan's Field Marshal Asim Munir. Rai told ANI, "Today, they have to tell that our PM and US President Donald Trump had a teleconversation. These things are not to be said. The people and countries will know it by themselves. If you have to tell this, it means you are giving justification... On the other side, Pakistan Field Marshal Asim Munir has been invited by Donald Trump for lunch...Nothing can be more shameful than this..." Earlier today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a telephonic conversation with US President Donald Trump on the sidelines of the G7 Summit, which took place in Canada. During the conversation, which lasted over half an hour, PM Modi briefed the US President about India's Operation Sindoor and firmly conveyed the message that India has never accepted and will never accept mediation on the issues with Pakistan, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri informed. Misri noted, "Prime Minister Modi made it clear to President Trump that during this entire episode, at no time, at any level, were issues such as India-US trade deal or mediation by the US between India and Pakistan discussed. The halt to military action was discussed directly between India and Pakistan, through existing channels of the two armies, and was at the request of Pakistan." He added, "Prime Minister Modi stressed that India has never accepted mediation, does not accept it, and will never accept it. There is complete political unanimity in India on this issue." The remarks come after the US President had time and again claimed that he had used trade as a means for the cessation of hostilities between India and Pakistan. (ANI)
