Trump’s Tariff Tirade: Time For India To Hit Back At US; Can America’s Arrogance May Revive Dragon-Elephant Dance? | India News
When the United States applied a total of 104% tariff to China, Beijing quickly responded and slapped US goods with almost equal values. US President Donald Trump realized that his pressure tactics would not work with Beijing, and now the two countries negotiate in a trade agreement while tariffs are waiting until August 12th. Now, Trump brought additional tariffs to India, led taxes to 51%, and Indian leaders want the government to retaliate. The Congress MP Shashi Tharoor called on the government to bring a 50% tariff to the USA.
PM Modi’s reaction
Reacting to the US pressure, Prime Minister Narendra refused to lean and said that India would not submit to these tactics. On Thursday, Prime Minister Modi said that farmers remained the most important priority of India and would never endanger the interests of the country. PM Modi, “For us, the interest of our farmers is our biggest priority. India will never compromise the interests of farmers, fishermen and milk farmers. I know we need to pay a heavy price for this and I’m ready for it. India is ready for it.” He said.
China supports India
In particular, Trump is trying to push India against trade with Russia, claiming that the new Delhi finances Moscow’s war machines against Ukraine. Russia has recently said that each country has the right to choose trade partners and that the US’s attempt to push trade between Russia and other countries is illegal and will be considered as a threat. Now China has supported India against the United States. “India’s sovereignty cannot be negotiated and foreign policy elections cannot be manipulated by other countries,” no matter how important their own ties with India, ”
China-Russia-India Troika
China has repeatedly said that she was eager to develop ties with India and to dance the dragon-metant dance once again. Russia in Russia-China-India showed great interest in reviving Troika. Trump’s tariff movement not only damages Indian exports, but also sends a clear message that the United States cannot be a reliable partner for the new Delhi. Trump’s growing ties with Pakistan have already disturbed India, and now additional tariffs are forcing India to look beyond America.
Chinese-India bonds revival
Donald Trump’s growing ties with Pakistan has already disturbed India, and now tariffs realize that India cannot be a reliable partner of America’s new Delhi. This will make India appear beyond the United States and bring China and India together. Former British Treasury Minister Jim O’Neill said in an interview that if the US put tariffs in India, the least anti -US member of BRICS, he could start thinking about his pro -Indian stance. “The last thing that America and China wants, India and China imply that India and China will be a greater headache for the United States.
Trump’s Nobel Award Ambition
Donald Trump has been forcing the Nobel Peace Prize for his case since he was taken over as the President of the United States. Trump claimed that he had stopped six war in six months, including India and Pakistan. The wars that Trump claimed to have stopped Israel and Iran; Democratic Republic of Congo and Rwanda; Cambodia and Thailand; India and Pakistan; Serbia and Kosovo; And Egypt and Ethiopia. Now Trump is very eager to force the ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine for the dream of the Nobel Peace Prize, which he seems ready to sacrifice a partner like India.
It is time for India to seize the United States, as the Trump administration has already supported Pakistan and only statements will not help the new Delhi’s cause.
