president trump and prime minister modi have a lot in common. president trump is america first, modi is the same way. they are similar over immigration. and the first policy modi has been pursuing marginalizes the muslim population here in india. i would imagine the people in the stadium today are predominantly if not 100% hindu. they are brought in the from ahmad bad and from the outside, gujarat. and saying let's give president trump a big welcome to show the growing relationship between the united states and india. the heat is starting to get stuffy, but not that hot. the program should be beginning here in 5-10 minutes. that's when the heat is really going to start. but there are a lot of differences between the united states and india. there is a growing trade relationship. he will buy helicopters and other goods from the united states. but there are still some problems. but those problems will be put aside today. it will be all about the celebration and the growing relationship between the united states and india pe per personiy the preside

president, donald trump, and their own prime minister narendra modi. this is what we saw earlier, u.s. president donald trump and first lady arrive at the airport, greeted by the indian prime minister. they've been traveling in the direction, they have arrived here and, of course, we are expecting both leaders to take to the stage and make some joint remarks. >> take a look at that stadium. this is the motera stadium. it holds more than 100,000 people. it is packed at this hour. the president will pay a sunset visit to the taj mahal. the two leaders plan to meet for formal talks tuesday and trade is expected to be on the agenda. >> so we do want to go to sam kiley now. he is in ahmedabad at that cricket stadium. sam, talk to us about the whole ambience there and what we can expect to see in the next few moments going forward. >> reporter: well, we just heard from the announcement here over the public address system that donald trump and narendra modi and their respective parties are due to be taking the stage any moment. they are here at the stadium. th

india prepares for donald trump's visit by building a wall along the route of his motorcade. but can narendra modi and the us president break down trade barriers? indian officials have hinted that there could be an announcement on defence, but the trade deal president trump wants so badly looks unlikely. i'm lewis vaughan jones in london. also in the programme: idlib in syria is under ferocious attack by forces loyal to president assad. we have a special report. and we'll look at how indonesia is trying to fight flooding by spreading table salt in the clouds. good morning. it's 9am in singapore, iam in london and 10am in south korea, which is now home to some of the biggest outbreaks of the new coronavirus outside mainland china. there are now more than 600 confirmed cases in south korea, and six people have died. president moonjae—in has raised the nation's disease alert to its highest level. laura bicker reports from seoul. this hospital should have been a safe haven from the deadly infection, but nearly 100 of its already vulnerable patients are now battling coronavirus. some are being transfer

trump. you mentioned the howdy modi back in houston in september. between when these two leaders have been together. this definitely, one of the largest welcoming ceremonies, i think, that president trump will ever have, if ever, with 110,000 people at that stadium so. tell us more about the crowd that is gather there'd, if you would. ♪ >> the capacity here is 1 ty,000. it seems to be absolutely full. and full of modi supporters. remember the president said, mr. modi said to him, five or seven or even 10 million people would be here to greet him mr. trump seems to be somewhat fixated by these numbers. we don't know the number greeted him as he went to the home but officials said it would probably be more like 110,000 or so. as you can hear, it is an absolutely deafening show. president trump was meant only the here. i was saying earlier, don't expect any big trade disease or any big agreements from this trip. this is very much about an agreement and cementing the relationship between president trump and modi that was men to be a trade deal. they've b

last year at that houston rally in texas, there was the extraordinary site of president trump's and prime minister modi hand in hand touring the stadium with 50,000 people cheering them. so we're just seeing ivanka trump, the president's daughter, just sitting down now. she's just about to sit down. she's waving to the crowd. many of them waving back. she's in the front row there. more american officials coming out now. ivanka trump is accompanied by the president's son-in-law, jared kushner, and just behind me you can probably see that stage with the two cream colored seats where the two leaders will sit, and they are sitting behind bullet proof glass. now, don't be alarmed by that. it is quite normal for prime minister modi at big gathering celebrations here to be seated behind and protected by bullet proof glass. remember, india is a place where political leaders, leaders of the country have been assassinated before, more than one, so the indian security services take the personal safety of their leaders extremely seriously, and of course president trump and the secret service here do too. and presi

trump. prime minister nurendra modi. cnn's sam kylie is there. you know the rally is just kind of -- it's a huge moment for trump. i imagine he is loving all of the praise. >> reporter: yeah, absolutely. the rally's just wrapped up but the stadium was full. they have the seating capacity of 110,000. it was a bromance we've come to expect from the modi, trump duet with both of them particularly donald trump outlining each others achievements particularly in india mr. modi as far as the trump administration is concerned lifting people out of poverty. no mention, though, of the populist problems they both face and fomenting zkpeen fomenting islamaphobia. but at the same time modi pulling off quite a diplomatic coup by his explanation of the greeting which he said was a bow to the individual but also to the nobility within the individual. what politician could resist that illusion, laura? >> sam, thanks so much for being there for us. >>> she says her conservative colleagues on the bench are too eager to side with the trump administration. sotomayor w

us president the type of stadium event that he revels in but this trumps all stage appearance with indian prime minister in the end dr modi suggest a meeting of minds open haps this i'm femi oke a and you are in the stream send your thoughts for today show through twitter i knew. donald trump is making his 1st visit to india as u.s. president but state coughed is not as important as showbiz perhaps hours after arriving in the city of armada bad on monday you know go right into a new cricket stadium joining the ranger modi in front of 100000 people here's a taste of what both leaders set. i learn only. just learned that the. good that. religion. america loves. america respects india and america rowers be very loyal. to the people. but the visit has divided opinion on social media a platform that both leaders are expert at navigating hashtags or trying to visit range from their mass they trump trump india visit to india reject trump visit even before trump there was criticism that poor air is a lot about what being hidden by war was on the route to the stadium but others in the region say that trump is the 1st us president

there are a lot of indian americans that do like prime minister modi and indian americans and even indians in fact who like loyalty like trump and. again they don't have clinton is and so this time i think modi does trump rather just see an opportunity and he is going for it there. i think it this is sort of going on a different tangent but i think another thing that we need to bring up is the fact that how controversial modi is we've talked about you know they're both great negotiators they're very popular but they also are magnets for criticism i mean we we have to bring up some of the criticism that modi has received over kashmir the cutting off the internet i think it's month for now donald trump has received similar criticisms for some of these same hardline policies and so it's kind of ironic that in the midst of all of this that we're talking about donald trump wanted to go there he was to in these votes but it could blow back as well i mean i think that it probably won't the united states because most americans are that well informed about these policies but he does gravitate to these hard line leaders whether it's m

and then modi says, well, nothing to do with me, and, what, trump just believes him?ow is he so gullible? anytime a world leader says they're not guilty of something, trump believes it, whether putin, kim jong un, modey, doesn't matter. trump would be the perfect partner to cheat on. hey, you got a text from big dick dave. who is that? that's just my really tall friend richard dave. oh, okay, have a fun night. working late!
