'Had a very good conversation': Trump on phone call with 'friend' PM Modi

US President Donald Trump on Friday said he had a "very good conversation" with his "friend" Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He was referring to the talks the two leaders had on Tuesday. "I had a very good talk with him, and he's a friend of mine from India, and he's doing great. We had a very good conversation," Trump told reporters here as he headed to Las Vegas to address a roundtable on tax cuts. Trump had called Modi on Tuesday to discuss the bilateral relationship and share perspectives on the situation in West Asia, where the US and Israel have launched a war on Iran. The US and Iran declared a two-week ceasefire on April 7. They engaged in peace talks with Washington, insisting that Tehran give up its pursuit of nuclear weapons and uranium enrichment. The war with Iran has sent gas prices soaring as Tehran blocked the sea lanes in the Strait of Hormuz, the narrow gateway for a fifth of global oil supplies. During the Trump-Modi phone call on Tuesday, the two leaders stresse

Trump slams Italian PM Meloni over lack of support for war with Iran

Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni was supposed to be Europe's bridge to US President Donald Trump. It may be burning. After chastising Pope Leo XIV, Trump turned his ire on Meloni, long one of his closest European allies, for calling his papal broadside "unacceptable" and not backing the US-Israel war on Iran. "I thought she had courage,'' Trump said in an interview with leading Italian daily Corriere della Sera. "I was wrong." Meloni has not directly responded to Trump's attacks. But they may be to her advantage as she recovers from a decisive referendum defeat last month and as she seeks to dull the impact of the deeply unpopular Iran war, including higher energy prices. "I actually think this is a godsend for her,'' said Nathalie Tocci, a professor at Johns Hopkins SAIS Europe and the director of the International Affairs Institute. "Trump has become completely toxic across Europe, across much of the world, including Italy." Trump doubled down on Wednesday, saying their bond had .
