Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was a bonafide rocket star during his trip to Washington, D.C., last week.

There were 7,000 cheering supporters who greeted him at the White House. Modi was treated to a lavish state dinner by President Joe Biden, who acted as if the two were the best of friends. Lawmakers from both parties gave Modi rapturous standing ovations as he delivered an address to a joint session of Congress, the second of his decadelong tenure.
