‘Thank you Prime Minister Modi,’ Tweets Ivanka Trump after invite

WASHINGTON: Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited Ivanka Trump, daughter of Donald Trump, to lead an American delegation of entrepreneurs to India during his first meeting with the US President at the White House on Monday.

“I have invited her (Ivanka Trump) to lead the US delegation for global entrepreneurship forum,” PM Modi said while jointly addressing the media with President Trump following a one-on-one with the President and delegation-level talks between the two sides.

“…And I believe she has accepted,” Mr Trump said after PM Modi also extended an invitation to the President and his family to visit India.

Ivanka Trump, 35, thanked PM Modi for the invitation to lead the US delegation to the Global Entrepreneurship Summit in India.

Ivanka Trump and her husband Jared Kushner are both close advisers to President Trump. The US President’s older daughter moved into her own West Wing office in March.
