Testband company chairman Kirk Lubimov, while criticizing Turmp’s strategy on Twitter, wrote, ‘Trump is now taking the fastest growing economy in the world to fight with India. This is a big geopolitical mistake. Lubimov believes that the importance of India is not only economic, but also to balance China’s influence in the supply chain. He suggested Trump that he should cooperate with Canada and India instead of controlling India with nail-hills so that global resources can be balanced.
