Trump is angry with India due to Russia
US President Trump has imposed 50 percent tariff on India. He has a problem with why India buys oil from Russia. While China also buys oil from Russia and it has now given exemption about diamonds. Trump had alleged that India is funding the Ukraine war by purchasing oil from Russia. Now the relations between India and America are also going through a period of ups and downs.
America can also suffer loss due to tariff
Trump’s tariff may also cause strong loss to America. The tariff imposed on India and other countries can increase inflation, due to which the US economy may decrease between 0.4-0.5 percent. 25 percent of additional tariffs imposed on India by the US have come into effect from Wednesday. With this, the US tariff on Indian exports has increased to 50 percent.
