it's not just, make in india, make in india. it helps translate the country, the strategy to the company but also helps us become more competitive. that's why we're doing it. the other part of the equation is innovation. we find lots of opportunities to find pockets of innovation in india. ou heard -- i heard a bit of g.e.'s talking about, we've seen that in space. that's why we're planning on doing more work in india. mr. haqqani: is there r&d taking place? mr. kumar: absolutely. we are building a significant presence in the country, in bangalore, some of the recent innovations, patents filed from there is cutting edge. mr. haqqani: we don't want to get into the politics but let us just say some people see a difficulty in having -- i mean, everybody is upbeat at the political and strategic level but at the business level i have seen stories that say prime minister modi wants to make in india, president trump wants to do everything in the united states. let me call a -- it may cause a bit of a problem. surely it is a -- there is

-india relationship. as prime minister modi is here in washington for a first meeting with president trump. here at hudson institute, we are delighted to host a special event hosted on the future of the u.s.-india commercial partnership and we are also grateful to our friends at c-span for covering this event live. u.s.-india bilateral trade has an estimated $11,420,000,000,000, less than one fifth of the u.s.-china $640 billion bilateral trade relationship. india is america's ninth largest supplier of foreign goods and 18th largest export market. the worlds first in the world's six largest economies respectively, we are hesitant to believe there is significant room for growth. the u.s.-india relationship is an important one here at hudson institute. our south asia program, which is directed by former ambassador hussein had connie -- hussein haqani in the u.s.-india japan trilateral relationship for some time now. i was very fortunate to be honored to be included in a briefing with prime minister modi dur

trade deficit with india ranks india at the tenth level at around $30 billion.s a significant amount but pales in comparison to the likes of china and germany defense, energy and trade, those are the three topics we do expect the two leaders to talk about. after their joint statement, they will then go on to a cocktail reception, a dinner which as we've been saying that will be -- modi will be the first foreign state, head of state, to have dinner, a working dinner with the president at the white house. once we get the statement, of course, we'll get it to you, melissa, back to you. >> seema, thank you, semma mody at the white house tim, we got to go to you, the ambassador. >> prime minister modi was elected in 20 14, rallied for a year since that times it's done nothing. the honeymoon period of high expectations this is a country we should be doing a lot of business with, they should be our friend. if you think about the technology kind of benefits and certainly the strengths of this economy and the demographics in india, it makes a hot of sense why this is ahi

it's called make in india.mpanies from across the world to come and make in india. and i think apple's step is extremely important. it's a sign of things to come. so it's not that only indian companies need to create jobs for americans. as you know, a large number of orders have been placed with boeing if india is to give access to its markets in such an incredible way, i think it's really important that american companies should understand that india needs manufacturing within india as well. and american companies need to support the make in india program, as well >> ajay, the success that indian americans have had in this count country, founding companies, being employ 2 through 10 on very large companies, do you think that the white house wants to champions, wants to limit, is agnostic on? >> i don't think it's for the white house to champion or limit this this is in the natural progression of things, that we have so many incredible indian ceos. as you know, microsoft is headed by an indian as well as google

india has a lot to offer american companies.g to persuade mr trump that there is plenty for indian companies to offer the us. well, in addition to mr modi's visit to washington, we are also watching this this week. on thursday, it will be ten years since the first iphone went on sale in the united states and since then, apple has sold over 1 billion units of the iphone worldwide. also on thursday, chinese president xijinping worldwide. also on thursday, chinese president xi jinping arrives worldwide. also on thursday, chinese president xijinping arrives in hong kong. he is scheduled to stay until saturday to inaugurate a new leader there. injuly saturday to inaugurate a new leader there. in july the first, saturday to inaugurate a new leader there. injuly the first, 20 years is marked since hong kong was handed back to china by britain. by the end of the week, friday brings a close to the trading session for the end of this year. i was asking what narendra modi might achieve on his visit to the us. i feel at the betrayal of it b

and it is the same in india. mean, i remember watching people demonstrating outside the irish embassy because an indian woman who could not get an abortion had died in dublin. and they were the same people who are celebrating the massacre of women in gujarat. yesterday, by the way, in the brooklyn academy, you know who was present? the daughter of ehsan jafri, the member of f the legislative assembly who was hacked to death in 2002 gujarat. his wife, zakia jafri, has spent all these years in court after court trying to get justice. nothing. amy: and she was at your reading last night -- >> she was, yes. amy: at the brooklyn academy of music. explain the significance of that, and, you know, leading right up to president trump meeting prime minister modi on monday. >> ehsan jafri was, obviously, a muslim, but he was a trade union leader and a former member of the legislative assembly in gujarat in 2002. and when the -- - post the trai, the burning of the hindu programs on a train when the mobs decided that collecti

what would help india, the india you want to see, arundhati roy?it would help if both of them are both sent to the frying pan park in virginia with all of the turkeys that are forgiven on thanksgiving. i mean, the meeting isn't going to help us because that is not the issue. the issue is that, what do they represent and -- i mean, to me, i don't -- it is not important saye to mock trump or things about modi because the real question is, why are -- you cannot dismiss the fact that they are people who have been elected democratically. ,o there is fire in the ducts and that is the problem. they are both easy meat. there are both easy to laugh at you but i don't think it is a laughing matter. the point is that someone like myself, you know, i and a position where -- i am in a position where one is a minority the voices right now. even though i am a writer and i don't necessarily believe ever that the majority is always right, so there's something very wrong going on. and that wrong has been created by the people who are criticizing trump now. we do nee

in india, everyone's yea rs talking about.s perked up because it is a huge pa rt years perked up because it is a huge part of the tech centre. he told me, the hb1 these are plays an important pa rt the hb1 these are plays an important part be in the economy —— h1b. people use those to come to the us every year. 70% of people who use it are from india. despite the importance of the h1b issue to india, narendra modi is not likely to risk souring relationships between the two economies. the uk's biggest health food retailer holland and barrett is being bought by a russian billionaire for about $2.3 billion. the financial times says that the chain of more than 1,100 stores is being by l1 retail which is controlled by mikhail fridman. holland and barrett also has stores across europe, as well as a growing presence in emerging markets including the middle east, china and india. shares in asia have edged up on optimism about global growth, while the dollar was on the defensive as a subdued us inflation outlook raised questions about

with theou can also argue expected growth for india that india is a friend the u.s. has to have.ree do you see this growth prospected elevate ties? big to ignore. apple just opened a manufacturing plant in india, so big u.s. companies are looking to india as an increasingly promising market. it used to be everything was china, but now it is clear that india is gaining that critical mass as well as a big consumer market, smartphone technology companies are looking at india, and defense companies as well, and on this particular trip, there might be something in that realm as well. >> i'm curious about this whole h-1b visa situation, that being a thorn in the side of this relationship that seems to be going swimmingly well between the two. know the reforms being put in place on the h-1b visa. we don't know what the in will be, but how much of a hit is that towards the elite tech executives and folks in india? >> certainly a bit of a headache in the short-term. you have a lot of indian i.t. workers in the u.s. with restricted visa access, they will have to shift some staffing back to

that is a hot button issue for india.frastructure projects going into disputed territories, but more generally pakistan and the chinese getting a more aggressive assertive pakistan which india is keen to push back on. pressing see mr. modi support from the u.s. on this try to get it to take a harder stance, but this will not get much in the u.s. on that front. the relationship between india and pakistan is tense at the best. we have seen shooting wars. any potential risks or flash points that might come up for discussion? richard: you have got the issue of broader defense coordination between the two, the u.s. and india. your going to see the u.s. pretty leery making headlines grabbing announcements that could irritate the chinese. i think where you will see a clear win and the scope for tremendous gains going forward is commercial contracts in the defense sector, one of the key backdrops to the summit is the news that lockheed martin and the tartaric group are moving f-16rd with plans to build fighter jets in india. the

india is a major ally.n't start a nuclear war. >> eric: nonnuclear methods and disable their nuclear program. >> lisa: what is the intelligence like? we've got to leave. we are going to have this conversation during the break. coming up, government websites hacked by a group spewing pro-isis propaganda. u.s. sending more troops to afghanistan. later, it is the eve of something very special for mr. eric bolling. that's coming right up. just like the people who own them, every business is different. but every one of those businesses will need legal help as they age and grow. whether it be help starting your business, vendor contracts or employment agreements. legalzoom's network of attorneys can help you every step of the way so you can focus on what you do. we'll handle the legal stuff that comes up along the way. legalzoom. legal help is here. >> eboni: welcome back to "the fox news specialists." our specialists are kris kobach and ari aramesh. nearly a dozen government websites in ohio as well as new york

yet india is the world's second biggest exporter of beef. in the northeast of the country, thousands of cattle are smuggled across the border to bangladesh every day. asedesiansnd cyclist cross from india into bangladesh, border guards check identity papers. but they don't check this vehicle. the driver gets new papers. he barely has to slow down. and that's how cows from india are brought, illegally, into the country to be slaughtered. in hinduism, the majority religion in india, cows are sacred. in the first village on the bangladeshi side, we find a collection point for cattle brought in from india. there are dozens of places like this along the border. traders tell us that smugglers benefittraders tell us that smugglers ask for the equivalent of about 150 euros for a cow from india. nobody here is keen to talk to us on camera. >> i'm just the driver. >> we ask if they are his cows. >> i don't know where the cows come from. i am just a driver. >> large cattle markets like this one are held every day at different locations near the border.

what does this mean for india? our india business tea m mean for india?ess team makes it down. —— breaks it down. the goods and services tax, the gst, will unify india into a single market. businesses will pay one tax rather than several state and federal taxes that they pay at the moment. there are four basic rates, five, 12, 18 and 20 8%. most goods and services were signed a tax rate. there are some exceptions like milk and vegetables. —— 28%. india's finance minister says gst could lift growth as much as 2% by streamlining tax collections, so the government can make more money. businesses are worried that they are not ready for the tax overhaul. it has been a good six months for asian share prices despite concerns over rising interest rates in the us. stock markets across the region have rallied. looking at the regents have rallied. looking at the regent's biggest markets — hong kong and south korea are some of the top performers up nearly 20% since the beginning of the year. japan is up 6% and stocks in china have inched higher by nearly 3%. i asked

the relationship between india. and the united states has never been stronger has never been better. president tom that for more on that discussions i'm joined now by my colleague rajesh impact yet. so broad gestures very struck the president trump said that he and prime minister mehdi of both world leaders in social media. do you think that developing the personal chemistry to indian officials hope they would. it's early days but so far it's gone pretty well. as far as they're concerne. a president drum during his tenure as candidate from then he had said that i'm dead from administration india will have. had a best friend in the white house and he reiterated that so that would have gone down well here. they were expecting very strong statements on de against terrorism which had dead and more. that how the us is more encouraging and how supportive malvina support in afghanistan and the indolent of god is that so those are very positive statements yes there were some foundation that president trump has been talking

m odi put his india first with mr. trump's america first? mr. m odi wants to build in india. mr.o protect american jobs. there's a way to do this. there's a way for both sides to talk about a win, win scenario where we manufacturer things in america, and we sell them to india. it might be defense. it might be a caterpillar or john deere equipment to help with their agriculture, it might be clean, liquid gas, natural gas for their economy so they have a stronger, cleaner economy. but managing these differences and talking about where you have differences, maybe have some differences on afghanistan. maybe have some differences on trade, maybe you have differences on climate change. maybe our american businesses are having a hard time getting into their market. managing those differences is every bit as important as figured out new areas to deepen this strong relationship. liz: you mentioned that we could benefit from this by manufacturing items that india buys. not working that way right now in the way that president trump and many americans would like to see it work. meaning we've

to india's jet.ants india to sign a deal to buy american natural gas. he jokes -- let's be honest, he wasn't joking. he wants to get the price up on that before he said yes. defense technology seems to be the area of common ground. what can we expect when it comes to what each country can deliver at the end of the day? ramy: we are looking ahead to things that fly, things that , and things that shoot. with general thomas, what you're seeing is one of the drones that san diego-based general thomas makes. there is news here that 22 guardian drones will be bought by india and the f-16 joint production with the us for potential of some $15 billion for the region. we have to wait because the official news has not yet dropped. in their dinner. a few hours yet until mr. modi has to take off from washington. anchor: ramy inocencio, thank you. we will talk more about treasure in -- about president trump travel ban. the fallout, just ahead. this is bloomberg. ♪ anchor: we are looking outside of so give this mo

the us is far ahead of other countries, and they could help india.s about, what president trump has been saying, that is not fair to the us and his supporters. so they were suffering because of this kind of accord. so far, during this meeting, we don't think that issue has come up, because it wasn't mentioned. but we'll be looking closely at the joint statement that comes after these meetings, in a couple of hours. our other top story: the us supreme court has agreed to allow parts of president trump's controversial travel ban to go into effect while it considers whether the policy should be upheld or struck down. the measure bans entry to travellers from six muslim—majority countries for 90 days, and suspends the us refugee programme for 120 days. 0ur north america editorjon sopel was at the supreme court in washington. it's not a total slam dunk, but it is a partial and yes, a significant victory. if you just cast your mind back, the courts had blocked the whole thing entirely. there was no ban in place. now, the ban is going to partially return, b

they played earlier in the tournament and india w011 earlier in the tournament and india won by 124 runsh—lewis system and since then pakistan have really improved. patrick gearey was there watching the match. if you went on the enthusiastic mod theirfans if you went on the enthusiastic mod their fans you would think every game they played was bangladesh's biggest yet, this one probably was. their first biggest yet, this one probably was. theirfirst major biggest yet, this one probably was. their first major semi—final, biggest yet, this one probably was. theirfirst major semi—final, one they were never supposed to reach, 110w they were never supposed to reach, now india are calling. bangladesh come into this game as they come into every game in the champions trophy, as the outsiders. but this tournament has been about confounding expectations. just ask the hosts. india asked bangladesh to bat and then immediately interrupted them, kumar striking in the first of. he got another but iqbal hit back, he's a batsman who makes bangladeshis believe. watch out, though. with great power comes gr

india, china, russia, pakistan.ant will this bloc be going forward?|j climate accord. how important will this bloc be going forward? i think it will take time to work out its agenda. i don't think until now the shanghai cooperation 0rganisation has converged properly. it will take time. each country has its own respective agenda. they are inspiring to play bigger roles in the world. but the bigger powers don't usually converge easily because they have bilateral dynamics individually. it will take time to work out a cohesive agenda. more importantly, the group will be left wondering as to what the us is up to next. so that is going to be a major point of surprise. and now the question of iran in the discussions. they could be at loggerheads as they move on. thank you, sir, for your insights. some breaking news coming to us from scotla nd some breaking news coming to us from scotland yard. the detectives investigating the london bridge terror attack have made three more arrests. two of the men were held on suspicion o

part of the make india program.rivate sector and the indian private sector can play a big role. we have seen one big deal in the sr oiltor between through a private equity, which is a commodity company. so we are seeing some of that. to go.re is a long way >> yes. certainly indeed. we're still waiting for some type of india e.u. trade a free tradeal or agreement, which has not been signed. what are going to be some potential hurdles there on that front? >> see, this is a challenge with india, not only the e.u. but even in asia. we in asia always sort of worry about this issue, that india is a reluctant trader. it's very difficult, because of lobbies and political mind-set on opening up trade completely. you -- the same thing happened with the rcep the u.s.in asia and and the f.d.a. with the e.u. foot-dragging.en it's a reluctant trader. it is going to take time till the domestic politics in india gets behind open trade. but i think, as a fact, that india is going in for a manufacturing. they will require india to op

india and the energy partnership. india and the us have a similar nuclear agreement. to go by, that should set the tone for the meeting. there are other issues that could be hurdles to the relationship. this is the first time that prime minister narendra modi and president trump will be meeting. there could be some sticking points. india is very concerned about the review of how theseis concerned about the review of how these is monitored in the us, it could affect tens of thousands of it workers. president trump also took a jibe at india when he was pulling out of the paris claimant agreement, saying that india only agree to it because they would get thousands of dollars of aid from countries. also there has been talk of a significant drone deal with india? there has been talk of a significant drone dealwith india? yes, a senior white house official has said that that could be discussed. we are not expecting any major announcement from either side. prime minister narendra modi once again taking the message that india is open to business to the us. he met with top exe

the markets will create jobs in the india, because the markets will createjobs in the us india, becauseween india and the united states blossomed under the 0bama presidency. the question now is whether the magic will be repeated with his successor —— magic. you have been watching newsday. that's all for now — stay with bbc world news. hello there, good morning. the week that lies ahead will be very different from the weekjust gone, because the next few days are looking very unsettled which means we will see spells of rain which could be quite heavy. quite windy and you will notice things cooler, on a downward trend. it's a reasonable start to the day. lighter winds than we are seeing through the weekend, but we are looking out west for this low pressure to bring rain in from the west. a pretty reasonable start, much lighter winds and good spells of sunshine early on but a fresh start to the day, but in more rural spots, dipping into single figures. a bright start for many. some ood spells of sunshine. but out west, that low pressure system pushing its way into the west of ireland. that

america first or made in india? trump hails narendra modi for boosting the economy, there are several thorny issues which could make foran several thorny issues which could make for an uncomfortable visit. and as we mark the 20th anniversary of the asian financial turmoil, we met with south koreans who sacrifices we re with south koreans who sacrifices were worth their weight in gold. —— whose sacrifices. good morning asia, hello world. it is a tuesday. glad you could join us for this edition of asia business report. i am rico hizon and as we recorded on newsday, narendra modi hasjust met hizon and as we recorded on newsday, narendra modi has just met with donald trump at the white house. both men portray themselves as outsiders and promised to bring back jobs during their campaigns. president trump had this to say about his counterpart. thank you very much. it is a great honour to have prime minister narendra modi of india, who has been such a great prime minister. i have been speaking of him and reading about you,

now consider india, home to 1.2 billion people. that's 17% of the planet, so it's no surprise that india's problems, poverty, hunger, tend to be big. but the indian government is thinking just as big when it comes to fighting hunger, and they''re fighting that battle one lunch at a time. this "viewchange" film tells the story. amos r roberts: it's early momorning in a smamall village t far from the city of bangalore. kuma is cleaning the rickshaw that provides his family's velihood.. his wife nakama is washing the family's few dishes. and their children are getting ready for school. abilash, however, can't find his school shirt. amos: kuma but doesn't earn enough to buy spare shirts for the children. after paying for the hire of his rickshaw, he's lucky to make $4.00 or $5.00 a day, so clothes getet held togetherer with safety pins for as long as possible. while abilash helps his dad fix a puncture, his brother and sister have leftover rice fofor breakfast.t. their parents go without. amos: these kids are lucky. millions of indian

and india, india believes in to go together and to grow together.this is not something which is related with just the people of india. i think india wants to move ahead with everybody and move forward towards our growth and development. and that is our sole objective. [ applause ] >> president, you referenced it a bit if your marks earlier. do you feel moldova is facing a similar choice between east and west, pressured to make a choice. and must one choose? >> you know, over the past years recently we have been convinced that the european union, some people that the european union is is the best choice for us. but for small countes such as moldova, thenly chance to survive is to have good relationships with both east and west. and we will never be able in our current capacity to become an eu member because we have the against, we have is south of our country and some opinions in the north. and at a certain point of time, if someone believes that we should choose, we will lose our statehood. so our goal and my goal other the past six months is to bri

india celebrating, their tea m moment. india celebrating, their team has scored 281. the bit that, england would have to score like never before. they were batting. they had never chose to a total of that big. who would stay in? 42 a2. heather that big. who would stay in? a2 a2. heather knight had push it. but run out. fran wilson, in herfirst world cup match, played the best innings of her career. her 50. cup match, played the best innings of her career. her50. in cup match, played the best innings of her career. her 50. in the last over, england needed 76, but those runouts —— wickets kept coming. england soon all out for 2a6. england's big day, the opportunity grabbed by india. lewis hamilton got a 66 pole of his career. sebastian vettel will start in fourth. in tennis, marion cilic and sebastiano lopez wilken met —— contest the final. petra kvitova will contest her first final since injured ina will contest her first final since injured in a knife attack. her opponent had to retire. she will play an australian in the final. that's all the sport. you can see more t

if china and india want to reduce their co2 footprint. india, by the way, any agreement, conditioned any steps that they would take on receiving $2.5 trillion of aid. china agreed to make no steps until the year 2,030. >> chris: let me pick up on that because you've taken me exactly where i want to go. working together.
