India and the United States.
00:01
Prime Minister Modi, as most of you probably know,
00:04
was one of the first visitors welcomed into the Oval Office
00:06
during President Trump's second term.
00:09
And like President Trump, the Prime Minister inspires remarkable loyalty
00:13
because of the strength of his belief in his people and in his country.
00:19
Now, we're so grateful for Prime Minister Modi's hospitality,
00:22
as well as the reception that he and everyone else in this country
00:25
have given us on this first trip for me to India.
00:28
This is my first time visiting the birthplace of my wife's parents,
00:34
and she's, of course, in the front row there.
00:36
There you are, Usha.
00:42
She's a bit of a celebrity, it turns out, in India, I think more so than her husband.
00:46
But I haven't been here long, but already I've been fortunate enough
00:50
to visit the Akshwadam Temple.
00:52
Did I pronounce that right, honey?
00:54
I did okay? All right.
00:55
With my family this morning, as a matter of fact.
00:57
And last night, Prime Minister Modi welcomed me, Usha, and our three small children
01:03
at his beautiful home.
01:04
I've been amazed by the ancient beauty of the architecture of India,
01:09
by the richness of India's history and traditions,
01:12
but also by India's laser-like focus on the future.
01:16
And those things, I think, this appreciation for history and tradition
01:20
and this focus on the future is very much something that I think animates this country in 2025.
01:26
Now, in other countries I've visited, it sometimes feels like there's a flatness,
01:30
a saneness, a desire to just be like everyone else in the world.
01:36
But it's different here.
01:37
There's a vitality to India, a sense of infinite possibility, of new homes to be built,
01:43
new skylines to be raised, and lives to be enriched.
01:47
And there's a pride in being Indian, a feeling of excitement about the days that lie ahead.
01:53
Now, it's a striking contrast with too many in the West,
01:56
where some in our leadership class seem stricken by self-doubt and even fear of the future.
02:01
To them, humanity is always one bad decision away from catastrophe.
02:07
The world will soon end, they tell us, because we're burning too much fuel
02:10
or making too many things or having too many children.
02:14
And so, rather than invest in the future, they too often retreat from it.
02:19
Some of them pass laws that force their nations to use less power.
02:23
They cancel nuclear and other energy generation facilities.
02:26
Even as their choices, the choices of these leaders, lead to more dependence on foreign adversaries.
02:33
Meanwhile, their message to their friends, to countries like India,
02:36
is to tell them that they're not allowed to grow.
02:39
Well, President Trump rejects these failed ideas.
02:44
He wants America to grow.
02:46
He wants India to grow.
02:48
And he wants to build the future with our partners all over the globe.
02:51
And when I look at this audience, or when I visit this incredible country over these last couple of days,
03:02
I see a people that will not be held back.
03:06
Now, the most profound responsibility, I believe, that all of us have
03:09
is not to ourselves, but to the next generation,
03:12
to make sure we leave them with a better society than the one that our parents and our grandparents gave us.
03:17
And this is the world that America seeks to create with you.
03:21
We want to build a bright new world, one that's constantly innovating,
03:26
one that's helping people to form families,
03:28
making it easier to build, invest, and trade together in pursuit of common goals.
03:34
Now, I believe that our nations have much to offer one another.
03:38
And that's why we come to you as partners looking to strengthen our relationships.
