US President Donald Trump has said he would be surprised if India did not allow the export of Hydroxychloroquine tablets to the United States despite a request made to New Delhi over the subject, and hinted at a possible retaliation if India does not lift its hold on the export of the anti-malaria drug used in the treatment of coronavirus patients. Trump speaking from the White House during the Coronavirus taskforce briefing said that India does very well with the US and he sees no reason why India would not lift the hold on the US order of the medicine. He said, " I didn't hear that that was his (Modi) decision. I know that he stopped it for other countries. I spoke to him yesterday, very very good talk, and we'll see whether or not that stays I wouldn't be surprised if he would you know because India's does very well with the United States," Trump said that during his recent phone call with Modi, the latter had said he will consider the request of releasing the order to the US. The US President added, "So I wouldn't be surprised if that was a decision he'd have to tell me that I spoke to him Sunday morning I called him and I said we'd appreciate your allowing our supply to come out. If he doesn't allow it to come out, he doesn't allow it to come out, that would be okay, but of course, there may be retaliation, why wouldn't there be.
