NEW YORK (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he expected to have a trade deal of some kind between the United States and India soon.

“I think very soon we’ll have a trade deal. We’ll have the larger deal down the road a little bit, but we will have a trade deal very soon,” Trump told reporters as he met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi on the sidelines of the annual United Nations General Assembly.
