Expressing confidence in his leadership, Gandhi said that the two nations “will further deepen cooperation in areas of mutual interest” and “continue to work towards expanding avenues and opportunities for both, Indians and Americans”.
“I wish you the very best during your second term as President of the United States of America”, he stated.
Donald Trump created history by winning the US presidential elections on November 5, becoming only the second leader to serve non-consecutive tenures. The Republican Party also gained the control of the House and Senate.
He secured over 300 electoral votes, well ahead of the 270 mark needed to win the presidency. On the other hand, outgoing Vice President Kamala Harris could only win 224. In a major takeaway, Trump won all seven battleground states as well as the popular vote.
After a resounding victory in the US Presidential Elections, Donald Trump took to stage and in his speech, said, “America’s future will be bigger, better, bolder, richer, safer and stronger than it has ever been before. God bless you and God bless America”.
In his letter to Harris, Rahul Gandhi expressed his regards and said her “unifying message” will continue to inspire many.

Kamala Harris conceded defeat on Wednesday and expressed gratitude to everyone who supported her during the election campaign.
“My heart is full today. Full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve. The outcome of this election is not what we wanted, not what we fought for, not what we voted for, but hear me when I say: The light of America’s promise will always burn bright, as long as we never give up and as long as we keep fighting,” she told her supporters in Washington DC.
