PM Modi likely to skip the ASEAN summit in Malaysia: Is Donald Trump the real reason?
PM Modi is unlikely to visit Malaysia for the ASEAN summit due to a scheduling issue, and he will be supplanted by External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar. According to sources, PM Modi skips the summit, as Donald Trump has also been invited and will be in Kuala Lumpur for a two-day visit. However, PM Modi can participate through virtual mode at the ASEAN-India summit.
