External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said with Trump coming in, India could have to change terms of engagement since there is a belief that the world has been unfair to America.
"There will be a need to work out a political relationship with America under Trump 2.0. Trump has had a positive political view on India...

We're in an advantageous position in how to convert Trump 2.0," Jaishankar had said earlier this month.
