President Donald Trump has reignited global trade tension by declaring that the U.S. can “do whatever we want” as the July 8 deadline on reciprocal tariffs approaches. The 90-day pause on steep U.S. import duties—affecting several nations—is set to expire soon, with Trump refusing to confirm adherence to any deadline. While the EU faces a 50% tariff threat by July 9, Trump hinted flexibility, echoing his stance that America will act in its best interest. Amidst this uncertainty, Trump teased a “very big” trade deal with India, stating the U.S. has finalized partial deals with China and the UK and is working on opening India’s trade structure. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and Indian Minister Piyush Goyal have confirmed negotiations are progressing. Trump suggested letters may soon be sent to over 200 nations outlining revised U.S. trade terms. The trade battlefield is heating up again—with Trump in full control.
