“India Is Russia’s…”: Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs Plus Penalty On India
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a 25% tariff on India, effective August 1, citing India’s continued purchase of Russian military equipment and energy. In a post on Truth Social, Trump referred to India as a friend but criticized its high tariffs and trade barriers, calling them among the worst globally. He said India, along with China, remains a major buyer of Russian energy despite global calls to end the war in Ukraine. As a result, Trump stated that India would face both the tariff and an additional penalty for its defence and energy ties with Russia.#donaldtrump #indiatariffs #russiaukraine #tradebattles #foreignpolicy #geopolitics #usindia #globaltrade #indiarussia #americatrade #tariffthreat #toi #toibharat
