What is Trump's decision on immigration after the announcement by Bharat?
Donald Trump's administration links India's defense equipment purchases to the issue of illegal immigration. The upcoming Modi-Trump talks in February may determine India’s stance on increasing U.S. defense purchases in exchange for handling immigration. Meanwhile, efforts to repatriate illegal Indian immigrants from the U.S. are underway, with 18,000 expected to be returned in the first phase.

After assuming the responsibilities of the President of the United States, Donald Trump has been cracking down on illegal immigrants in his country. In this process, he is also making efforts to adjust the situation in a way that benefits his country. As part of this, Trump has already started identifying immigrants, making arrests, and deporting them on flights back to their home countries. Additionally, he is making several offers to those countries. One such offer is expected to be given to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Signals have already been given in this regard. India, which has already made significant purchases of U.S. defense equipment, now faces a situation where it will likely have to increase these purchases under Trump's conditions.
It is understood that Trump is linking India’s purchases of defense equipment to the issue of Indian immigration. Full clarity on this matter is expected in the upcoming Modi-Trump talks in February. After their discussions, Trump is likely to make a decision on immigration based on the announcement from India regarding the purchase of U.S. defense equipment. Whether India will greenlight more purchases of U.S. defense equipment in exchange for handling immigration remains to be seen, and we will need to wait a few more days for confirmation.

According to statistics released in June last year, the number of immigrants from India living in the U.S. was found to be 5.4 million. Among them, there are illegal immigrants as well. The Trump administration is working to precisely determine the number of such illegal immigrants. However, the Trump administration has already sent signals that it is certain to deport those who have illegally immigrated from India. In response, India has begun efforts to bring back its identified illegal immigrants. As part of this, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar has already announced that 18,000 people will be brought back in the first phase.
At this time, U.S. President Donald Trump recently made a phone call to Prime Minister Modi. During the conversation, Trump reportedly asked whether India would repatriate its illegal immigrants or whether they should be sent back. Prime Minister Modi has revealed that he will visit the U.S. in February for a meeting with Trump. Additionally, Modi has hinted at the conditions laid out by Trump.
