India skips Trump presser: Sources

New Delhi: Indian government sources revealed on Monday that President Donald Trump's erratic behavior toward foreign leaders led India to skip holding a media interaction following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meeting with Trump in France in June. This decision came in response to US envoy Sergio Gor's remarks, stating that New Delhi had informed the American side ahead of the Modi-Trump meeting that it preferred not to participate in a joint press briefing.

The sources emphasized that discussions about leaders' public appearances follow standard protocol and are part of routine diplomatic practice.
