Trump used a typical South Asian style with nasal resonance, signature of Modi's style of speech, those who participated in the meeting told Washington Post.

Trump used a typical South Asian style with nasal resonance, signature of Modi's style of speech, those who participated in the meeting told Washington Post.
Modi is known to praise the Trump administration's role in Afghanistan.
The Washington Post report adds: "To Trump, Modi's statement was proof that the rest of the world viewed the US as being duped and taken advantage of in Afghanistan."
The incident highlights that world leaders are taking PM Modi's foreign policy observations very seriously.
Trump has made it clear to senior Pentagon officials that he wants to see a quick return on the increased US investment in troops and money in Afghanistan.
Trump has used mimicking in the past as well. In October 2017, his address commemorating Hispanic Heritage Month, drew flak for his exaggerated Spanish accent.
