In a significant diplomatic engagement amid the ongoing US–Israel–Iran conflict, Donald Trump held a nearly 40-minute phone conversation with Narendra Modi on April 14, 2026.

This marked their first direct interaction since the announcement of a fragile ceasefire between the United States and Iran. During the call, both leaders reviewed bilateral ties and exchanged views on the rapidly evolving situation in West Asia. 

According to multiple reports, President Trump struck a warm personal note during the conversation, telling Prime Minister Modi, “We all love you.” The remark came even as discussions focused on serious geopolitical developments, highlighting the continued personal rapport between the two leaders.

A key highlight of the discussion was the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical global energy corridor.
