That would be a real signal to americans at home. If they are looking for someone to vote for with ties to their their their home country. This would be a choice. Aishah we are watching live pictures of the president and the first lady hanging a wreath. It looks like a memorial of gandhi. A picture of him. The ashram serves as a place of spiritual retreat. We saw the president and first laid which take off their shoes as a sign of respect. This is a place where people come to seek the truth, find spirituality and pay tribute to Mahatma Gandhi. How important is it that the president is taking place in this. Not just coming to india to hold a rally and go to the taj mahal. But to also pay tribute and visit gandhis memorial at the ashram. John the tag m the the taj mahal is one of the wonders of the world. This is a part of Prime Minister modis life because he grew up in gujarat. Obviously some people back in the United States are going to be cynical about this, that its merely a photoop i think President Trump and the first lady appreciate a sense of history. If you have been to india and visited some of the places Mahatma Gandhi touched, you cant help but get drawn in by the experience of it. Its significant to the indian people that the president is showing respect to somebody who was such a big part of indian culture. Aishah the Prime Minister is playing host. Instead of having someone else come in and walk the president and the first lady through. The Prime Minister is explaining the different parts of this ashram and playing the host. When you think about it. This is his home state. This is where he was born, raised, this is where he served as a chief minister. So there is a lot of pride for him to have the president of the United States come there first instead of going to the capital. Its interesting to watch as the two leaders interact and share each others cultures. The president learning more about Prime Minister modis culture. Lets talk about what happens next at this rally. Its a packed crowd. You can hear the music behind you. We can hear you. Tell us what we can expect to hear from the two leaders. We are expecting the Prime Minister to speak in his native language hindi and the president english. What are we expecting to hear from these two . John i would be surprised to hear President Trump in hindi. But we may hear Prime Minister modi speak a little bit of english. This is a party part this ia party atmosphere. This is the first time it has been used for anything since the renovation. It wasnt as big as it was now. They have redont ground. They turned this into an amazing facility. This really is inaugurating this brandnew stadium. They are having a primetime event here today. Its something the president will be impressed with. Aishah have you had a a simosa yet . John i did not. But i had some indian food. I love indian food. I am looking forward to it. Aishah modi is a lot like trump. Not a big fan of reporters sometimes. But they are soaking it up. Right . John lets clarify that. President trump says hes not a big fan of reporters. Hes a huge fan of Media Attention and loves to use the media as a foil for his own purposes. But when we are on the south lawn for departures. We are climbing all over ourselves to get the best angle and ask a question. The president comes out and loves to see the whole thing. He loves the media spectacle. Dont for a moment think the president doesnt like the media. He does like to complain. But modi is of a similar minds. The press here in india can be a circus as well. They can hold leaders feet to the fire. But its something you have to deal with. There isnt a lot of media. Aishah it looks like they are saying speak no evil, see no evil, hear no evil. And the location includes 12 different people including the Energy Secretary, chief of staff, the National Security advisor. Tell us why the National Security advisors are here and the role they will play. John they will play a role in the bilateral meetings. So the president and the Energy Secretary will make a pitch to india to buy liquefied natural gas from the United States. I dont believe Robert Lighthizer is on this trip. There is no reason to with believe these two would come to a Free Trade Agreement on this trip. You want the agreements you want the people to present their case in a granular sort of way. The cabinet members will get into a little more granular detail. They are creating a different type of trade relationship. Aishah we are watching the Prime Minister and the president. It looks like they are going to get back into their motorcade and head towards the large rally john roberts is at. Well watch these live pictures here and bring them to you on the Fox News Channel right after this break. We are going to stay on these live pictures for you. As we are watching the First Official state visit of President Trump in india. We are watching Prime Minister modi in his range rover. The president also just got into his vehicle and we are going to watch this motorcade travel to the motera stadium, the Worlds Largest cricket stadium. It can hold a capacity of 100,000 people. 110,000 people, 63 acres. Thats how large it is. The president and the Prime Minister will make remarks to all the quormd watching. John roberts is live for us. Can you tell us what we can expect to hear from these two leaders . John i think you will hear, the United States recently surpassed china as the Worlds Largest trading partner. President trump is to marvel at the size of this crowd. He will talk about how he wants to make it better and how rank and file indians can benefit from a better relationship with the United States. The economy has been humming along very well. He slowed down a little bit. President trump will probably say how great a guy he thinks motory is. And i think minnesota motory will say the same thing as well. The relationship between President Trump and Prime Minister motory has been solid and going closer the last few months. Aishah the motorcade is heading towards the motera cricket stadium. Both leaders will give remarks to indians there anxiously awaiting their arrival. We are watching the pictures live for you as the president makes his First Official visit to india. Well be right back. Guys, its that time. And nothins happenin. Well now theres score , from force factor, to rev your libido and maximize physical response. Its no wonder walmart offers score in more locations than any other performance enhancer. Unleash your potential in the bedroom, with score . Aishah this is a fox news alert. Im Aishah Hasnie in new york. We are watching live pictures from ahmedabad, india where the first lady and the president have arrived with a delegation as they head towards motera stadium which will be where a large rally will be held for the president and Prime Minister modi. This is the first of a twoday tour of the nation. The president s First Official visit to india. Mr. Trump and his host, Prime Minister tha modi are expected o deliver a speech. They were greeted in the state of gujarat. Its the home state for modi. This is where he was born and where he served as chief minister. It will be a source of great pride as he welcomes the president of the United States to his home state. We saw the president ial motorcade travel a short distance to the Mahatma Gandhis ashram on the sabarmati river. Now we are watching as the motorcade and the first couple head towards motera stadium which happens to be the Worlds Largest cricket arena with a capacity of 100,000 spectators. If you can imagine what 100,000 peck da100,000 spectators sos like, john roberts knows that. John, it gets clouder and louder every time we talk to you. Can you set the scene for us . John back when i was in my early 20s, i helped start the canadian mtv which required me to attend a lot of festivals. I went to the us festival, to the who, the police. I saw youtube play to 300400 people when they first got started. And this is the loudest i have ever heard. Its the p. A. System, the size of this arena is fairly modest. He have an array of speakers up on stage. But its the round stadium that bounces back. And its incredibly loud. Let me lay this out for you. We probably have 100,000 people in the stadium. There are probably a couple individual seats, but not many. You have a few hundred people down here on the Cricket Field itself. The president will hear a cheer the likes of what he has never heard before and one that will probably stick in his memory for a time to come. Aishah it nonresponsive surprise he will get a big, loud, warm welcome from the folks that live there. This is the country that created bollywood. If you have ever seen a bollywood film, its full of dance and color and vibrancy. And thats how i would describe the state of gujarat. This is the place to welcome a foreign president. It will be interesting to see President Trumps reaction when he takes the stadium. Prime minister modi is rolling out the red carpet for the first laid yesterday and the president. Whats supposed to happen once the motorcade arrives at the stadium. What are we expecting to hear then . I dont have a second by second breakdown. But you see the area around the stage surrounded by bulletproof glass. Then the podium with the seal of the Prime Minister of india. They will walk up on that stage and wave to everybody. All 100,000 people will be told by their local organizers, make sure you give President Trump the biggest welcome hes ever heard. They did something earlier today which was really interesting. We would hear a cheer from this side of the stadium which would then be echoed by this side of the stadium. It was almost like the old days of guadraphonic sound. And it creates an interesting effect and one im sure will take the first lady and the president by surprise. It bears repeating. If the president had been to a lot of big rallies. He was at the billin the bign houston with 50,000 with modi. And he said gentlemen, start your engines in daytona. But they wouldnt just cheering for the president , they were cheering for the daytona 500 and the drivers. Aishah we are getting a taste of it now as the motorcade rolls through ahmedabad. Pass he left the ashram they are getting larger and larger its so colorful. Everyone is wearing all sorts of colors, waving, shouting, cheering. There is the beast. Ringing bells and welcoming this president. Its been a couple years since they have seen and u. S. President come and visit. And a really big deal for ahmedabad and the state of gujarat. The local government there released a really sweet welcome video on social media. Just locals giving tourism advice to the president and first lady, talking about where to eat, what to see, where to take a selfie. Its really funny. I am not sure they will take that advice and go to all those different places, but its really cute. You can tell how excited people per. Im thinking of the folks watching here at home, the folks that have families in india, the indianamericans at home and how its resonating for them. We are just a couple months away from this election. How do you think that impacts the voters watching us right now . I think so we have the president , approximately 710 from the stadium here. As we watch the motor kate. You have an advantage i dont have. I have a monitor in front of me but the sun is behind me and i cant see a thing on the monitor. For indians who up grade to the United States, this is who immigrated to the United States, this is important. All they need to know is the passion of the indian people for their homeland and for the life they have in america is interesting. I met a couple from kansas city earlier before everything started. And they said they send 8 months of the year in kansas city then come back too ahmedabad. But america is their home and india is their hope as well. So what happens here has a tremendous effect on them. And what happens in the United States has a tremendous effect on them. I dont want to say that is the case for the 3 million indians in the United States. But there is that connection. But i imagine there are a lot of people watching fox news feeling proud for their home country. And their adopted country. Aishah we are watching live pictures as they head towards the rally. Well come back after this short break. Aishah this is a fox news alert. Im Aishah Hasnie in new york. We are watching live pictures from ahmedabad, india where the president just touched down about an hour and a half ago. As he embarks on his twoday state visit to india. This is his First Official tour of the country. Official visit. Mr. Trump and his host Prime MinisterNarendra Modi are expected to deliver a joint speech at a large rally. They are on their way right now to that rally. This is the motorcade weaving through the streets of ahmedabad. They are heading towards motera stadium which happens to be the largest cricket stadium in the world. It can accommodate up to 110,000 people. We are expecting every single seat to be full. Its 63 acres large. Thats very, very loud. Then they will head forth to the taj mahal in agra. They have already visited Mahatma Gandhis ashram on the banks of the river a lahr mattie. A the river sabarmati. We saw the president and the first lady have a photoop. The state of gujarat is the home state of modi. This is where he was raised. This is where he served as the chief minister. Hes welcoming the delegation to this home. They have touched down first in his home state. So its you would think a sense of pride for the Prime Minister as so many people,000 of people line the streets to watch this motorcade in the city of ahmedabad towards this joint stadium which will be the largest crowd the president will speak in front of. He sells out or fills up the stadiums here at home on the campaign trail. But this will be the largest crowd he will speak in front of. It will be loud in there. Its already loud. Our chief White House Correspondent john roberts might be losing his hearing. Hes standing there among the crowd. He is still with us. Hopefully you drank some water during that break. If you could, tell us what you are feeling and hearing and experiencing in that gigantic stadium there. John there is no question there was a great sense of celebration in the stadium. These people have been brought in by the bjb party, which is modis party, to give President Trump a big welcome. President trump and Prime Minister modi have a lot in common. President trump is america first, modi is the same way. They are similar over immigration. And the first policy modi has been pursuing marginalizes the Muslim Population here in india. I would imagine the people in the stadium today are predominantly if not 100 hindu. They are brought in the from ahmad bad and from the outside, gujarat. And saying lets give President Trump a big welcome to show the growing relationship between the United States and india. The heat is starting to get stuffy, but not that hot. The program should be beginning here in 510 minutes. Thats when the heat is really going to start. But there are a lot of differences between the United States and india. There is a growing trade relationship. He will buy helicopters and other goods from the United States. But there are still some problems. But those problems will be put aside today. It will be all about the celebration and the growing relationship between the United States and india pe per personiy the president and Prime Minister modi. Aishah with being on the cusp of winter and spring, its probably the best time to visit. But its more than just a ceremonial tour. What can you tell me about the significance of this face to face. They will be talking about serious stuff. This isnt just celebration and dance and colors and food. There is going to be some serious topics they will have to talk about trade among them. Right . Yes. I think the two most serious. They will probably be trade. Then there is also an argument between the United States so much easier to think where its not 120 decibels. We switched from indian music to elton john, President Trump is probably close at hand. There is this idea of the trade relationship and the indians have a lot of the protectionist trade policies. The president is hoping to lower tariffs on American Made motorcycles. The trade representative robert light highser is not going to be robert ligh rob robert lir wont be here. They want to purchase the surfacetoair missile system. The United States would rather they buy the Patriot Missile system. The Common Threat to india and the United States from the economic surge coming out of china as well as the buildup of the military and china has moved fully into the South China Sea to cut off a major shipping route into the northeastern part of asia. That will be an area. There will be areas of disagreement. Those will be about trade and selfdefense. Then there will be areas of commonality. You have two big pots here they will be talking about. Some areas they agree and some they disagree. Aishah i will put my money on the fact that china will be brought up. Russia probably will come. What about kashmir. India denied trumps suggestion he had been asked to play mediator between kashmir and pakistan. These tensions have been there since the birth of these two countries. Indias position has been the issue happens to be resolved bilaterally. They dont want influence in these matters. Do you think the president might bring this up again . John as i said earlier. Its possible. The president on several occasions offered to act as mediator. There is no indication that india and pakistan will solve it bilaterally. Modi has taken measures through citizenship laws an even information blackout . Cash mish to marginalize the indian population in kashmir. And i have again to kashmir both on the indian side and the pakistani side up to the line of control. And its still a powder keg. And its something that the slightest little thing could set off. It almost got set off in the last couple years. Any time there is a disagreement between india and pakistan its a powder keg. Aishah we watch the motorcade make its ithat car is one of mine. And soon, its going to be one of theirs. But they would have never even known it existed. If it werent for the power of targeted tv advertising. Its smart. It grabs peoples attention. It works. Its why Comcast Spotlight is changing its name to effectv. Because being effective means getting results. Aishah this is a fox news alert. Im Aishah Hasnie in new york. You are watching live pictures from ahmedabad mind yeah where the president is embark on his state visit with the first lady. This is his First Official trip to india and a special one. Month terra stadium is the largest in the world. We are told that the motorcade is running a little behind, but they should get there shortly. Lets tell you about this trip. The twoday state visit. The ambassador to india, the commerce, energy secretaries, the chief of staff, the National Security advisor, his daughter ivanka trump, and jared kushner, and press secretary Stephanie Grisham on the ground alongside the staff there. We are watching as this motorcade moves. We are right outside the stadium. Its motera stadium. Its incredibly long. It can accommodate 00,000 people. And i believe it is 63 acres large. So quite big. We are being told by forces they are intending on filling every single seat inside that stadium. If they do, this will be the largest crowd the president will have ever spoken in front of. Hes good at filling stadiums wherever he goes on the campaign trail. But this will be the largest crowd he speaks to in a stadium, and it will be interesting to see his reaction when he hears the loud cheers coming from the indians there. They are excited, very ready to welcome the president as he embarks on his First Official state visit. Our wonderful, and very helpful and intelligent chief White House Correspondent john roberts is standing by for us. We are so grateful you are there to walk us through these events. Just for those joining us right now. There is so much thats going to happen in this twoday trip. Im surprised and taken aback by this. The taj mahal visit. You got to visit the taj mahal, and im jealous. What can the president expect . Whats it like . John the one that applies best right now is the extremely jet lagged john roberts. I had a chance to see pictures. I have been speaking to you blindly. We didnt have the benefit of the seeing the pictures on our video return as you did. But they committed the stadium on a road that did not exist. They have been racing to complete final preparations for this event at motera stadium. It was under renovation. It was a smaller facility. They put a sun deck on it and a sun shade. Its an area more than 60 acres. Its not the stadium itself thats that big. But there are three other cricket grounds. Its sort of like the u. S. Open facility. You have flushing meadows, and then other places where the matches can take place. The if you are playing a cricket tournament you can have preliminary matches there. But you were mentioning the scene here and what we expect to see. There was probably close to 100,000 people up in the stands. There are some areas where there are 2530 seats that havent been filled. Politically this will benefit both President Trump and Prime Minister modi. President trump is lacking for the votes of the indians who immigrated to the United States, many of whom have become citizens. Prime minister modi is embattled in some controversial policies he has implemented. Hes hoping that the visit from President Trump wont have any criticism. The citizenship policy he revised where you can become a citizen of india as long as you are not a muslim. Which is seen as discriminatory any other place in the world. Modi will be taking the president s appearance here as a sign of political strength and a sign to all of the hindus here in india that he is the Prime Minister who can get things done. He can bring the most powerful man on earth, fill it to 100,000 people and have a grand celebration. You are mentioning the taj mahal in agra which is about a twohour train ride southeast of new delhi. You cant take air force one there because its too big of a plane to land there. So he will be switching to a smaller plane to go to agra. I was fortunate to go to the taj mahal with president clinton in 1999. Its a majestic facility. To think this is a months leem hat the hiragg built for his wife, its an impressive structure. Let me tell you, its an impressive facility. But in terms of the scene the president will see when he walks up to it. Its amazing. When you look back from the gardens and the reflecting pool, on to the taj mahal, its a stunner and it does take your breath away. The president will be able to take a look at that. I get he says to modi, i had a taj mahal once and it was a beautiful building and i had to sell it. Aishah that sounds just about right. So we are watching these images, and its absolutely incredible. Just the sea of humanity that has filled the stadium. I cant imagine whats happening to your ears. Because i can tell all the way over here how loud it is. Just incredible to see. Thats what the president will be walking into in just a few moments. We saw pictures of the motorcade arriving at the stadium. The curtains were drawn, and we are getting closer and closer to the moment when well see this crowd just cheer loudly and go nuts for the president on his First Official trip. And so we know a little bit more about this state visit. So they can participate in the mustsee trump rally. Then as yawn mentioned he will go on to visit the taj mahal in agra, just north of where hes at now. Then he will fly to delhi where he will rest overnight. And he will have a full day tuesday which will include ceremony events, bilateral meeting, business meetings, including meetings with Indian Business leaders interested in manufacturing in the u. S. Then it will wind down with a state dinner. The president is in india to demonstrate the strong ties between the two countries and the close relationship between the two administrations. There are also economic elements. There is more room to grow economically between the two countries, particularly in the energy sector. And then there is also the element of defense and security. John, can you talk more about that, just, you know, what these talks are going to entail . And then you mentioned not too long ago about the 5g issue as well. John first of all on trade, again nothing big expected on trade, but the president may get modi to back off on tariffs. I am hearing there is the press pool arrived to great cheers. I dont know brian, the White House Press pool travels with the president. From time to time i have been in that group of people. They fly ebb air force one. They fly on air force one. They just got huge cheers. Sometimes that group of people do not get cheers wherever President Trump goes. The two sides can show there is movement between changing the trade relationship between the United States and india. The president will talk about american weapons. The United States wants to be become the biggest supplier of materiale to india. Now they are about 2 billion in military materiel. So india has to be careful. The United States is a big friend of india. But india has to live in the regional. And russia is not too far away and china is not too far away. So if india buys a surfacetoair Defense System from russia. That might be a sign we have to keep the russians happy. Then you mentioned 5g. Huawei is a chinesebased company and has been tagged by the United States as a risk to u. S. Security because the u. S. Believes huawei has built a back door unto its system so the chinese intelligence apparatus can tap into a huawei system anywhere in the world and pull information off of it. You might say if you are just shopping and amazon and look at things on wikipedia that might not be a bad thing. But 5g will be at the core the future. It will handle everything from Artificial Intelligence to selfdriving cars to factories to remote medicine. And if you have a country like china that can tap into your system while its operating all of that, the chances for espionage and sabotage go up. But india said its going to keep huawei in its 5g system. So you might say okay. But britain did the same thing. Its a great consternation to the United States. The United States warned some of our closestal flies britain, germany and australia. They will no longer be part of the 5is indell jones system. Its going to be at the very core of the words technological future. The question is who wins. Does the United States win . Or does china win . Aishah the president will have to tackle this strategi extra strategically. People are so excited to see President Trump take the stage along with their. He modi. We are being told the two will share the stage. Modi will pea modi will spea. Then their first day of this twoday official visit. The remember is very complex. You talk about chain a and russia. Their influence. Close friendship with neighboring pakistan. Lets talk about that, john. The president is not just handing out state visits to anyone. You have to have some reaction from the neighboring nations who want some sort of a relationship boost so to speak from the u. S. John this state visit here on the part of. He modi is reciprocal to the state visit he had which includes the howdy modi event in texas. Its just what one is texan and other is but the relationship is important but it cant be overstated that there are issues that continue to divide the United States. The issue of kashmir is a big one, particularly for modi. This has been a flash point since since 1947 when they drew the lines between pakistan and india. And it cut through the heart of a predominantly muslim region and made it hard for a hindu country. Thats a point of contention with modi. He said if we are going to solve the kashmir
