India-Rus Tariff Row: US President Donald Trump has once again targeted India for trade. During a conversation at the Scott Jenning Radio Show, Trump said that India had offered to end all the tariffs, but it was possible only after applying his tariff. He claimed that if he had not taken this step, India would never have given such a proposal.

Trump described India as the world’s most tariff country. He said, ‘China kills us with tariffs, India kills us with tariffs, Brazil kills us with tariffs. I have considered tariff better than any human being. Trump says that Tariff has given a big negotiating power to America.

USA raised questions on oil purchases from Russia

The tension between India and the US increased further when the Trump administration imposed 25% tariffs on India and later doubled it to 50%. One of the major reasons for this was to continue the purchase of oil from Russia by India. Trump wanted India to stop taking oil from Russia, but India flatly refused. India said that its decisions are based on market status and public interests.

‘No compromise with farmers’ interest’

India has made it clear that talks on business are going on. Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal said that efforts are being made to resolve differences with the US and bilateral trade agreement (BTA) is possible by November. At the same time, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made it clear that India will not compromise on domestic priorities. He said, ‘The interest of farmers, fishermen and dairy farmers is the biggest priority for us. India will never compromise with them. “

Trump gave an example of Harley-Davidson

Trump once again raised the issue of Harley-Davidson motorcycle. He said that India had imposed 200% duty on this brand, due to which the company had to set up a plant at the local level. Trump argues that such tariffs prevent American companies from investing in India.

Trump is under criticism in America

Trump’s tariff policy is also being criticized in America. Economists and MPs say that such steps cause more damage to American consumers and manufacturers. Former US National Security Advisor Jake Sulivan even said that Trump has weakened America’s long -term strategic relations with India by preferring Pakistan.

The Chemistry of PM Modi-Putin and Xi Jinping at the SCO Summit held in China has disturbed Trump. Soon after the SCO, Trump issued a statement defending his tariff move. He said that India has imposed the most tariffs on American goods in the world, while American markets are open for Indian products. Giving the example of Harley Davidson, he said that up to 200% tariffs were imposed on the motorcycle, due to which the company could not sell motorcycles in India. As a result, the company had to set up a plant in India so that the tariff could be avoided.

Xi Jinping, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Russian President Vladimir Putin, attended the SCO summit. This was the first time after the tariff was imposed by America, when the leaders of three big countries of the world appeared under one roof. After this, the manner in which Trump has targeted the tariff and targeted India is clearly visible. However, India has clearly stated that it is not going to come in front of America under any kind of pressure. During this time, trade talks between the two countries are also going on, in which no solution has been found so far.
