WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States will increase military sales to India starting in 2025 and will eventually provide F-35 fighter jets, U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday.

Trump also said that Washington and New Delhi will be working together to confront what he called "the threat of radical Islamic terrorism."
