New Delhi: John Chambers, the Chairman of the US-India Strategic Partnership Forum (USISPF), expressed his admiration for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, labelling him the "best leader in the world today." Former tech titan Chambers highlighted Prime Minister Modi's remarkable 76 per cent approval rating and his unique ability to build trust.
"One thing about your prime minister, and obviously I'm a huge fan. I think he's the best leader in the world today. And I wish we had somebody like that in the US. We haven't got a political leader who has over 50 per cent approval rating, and Prime Minister Modi has 76 per cent," Chambers, who is known for his influential role in the tech industry, remarked during an interview with a private channel.
Chambers also emphasised the significance of a leader's track record, relationships, and trust-building abilities. He commended PM Modi for forming relationships with every political leader in the United States, citing the Prime Minister's ability to garner trust from the people. "If you think about a leader, it's about their track record. It's about their relationships and trust.
He's formed a relationship with every political leader we've had in the US. The people trusting," Chambers added. In 2022, India and US marked the 75th anniversary of diplomatic relations. The two nations enjoy a comprehensive global strategic partnership covering almost all areas of human endeavour, driven by shared democratic values, convergence of interests on various issues and vibrant people-to-people contacts.
