'India is a very high tariff nation': Donald Trump says reciprocal tariffs from April 2
Friday, 7 March 2025 US President Donald Trump labeled India a 'very high tariff nation' and announced reciprocal tariffs to start on April 2. He criticized India's tariffs on US goods, calling them unfair, and emphasized the US trade deficit with India. Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal is in Washington for trade talks to address these disparities.
Trump has reportedly reached out to Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, in an attempt to renegotiate a nuclear deal. This move comes amid speculation over Trump's foreign policy stance as he eyes a potential return to the White House. Sources suggest that Trump’s letter seeks to open...
In a harrowing visit to Gaza’s so-called “Valley of Death,” Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff walked the frontline near an aid distribution zone where nearly 900 civilians have reportedly been killed in recent IDF operations. Joined by international officials and aid workers, Witkoff witnessed first-hand the devastation wrought by shelling in proximity to humanitarian corridors.

India has reportedly declined a U.S. offer to buy F-35 stealth fighter jets, according to Bloomberg. The offer was made by President Trump during Prime Minister Modi’s visit to Washington in February. Instead of purchasing American jets, India is prioritizing joint defense manufacturing initiatives and has shown greater interest in the Russian Su-57, especially after its debut at Aero India.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs downplayed Bloomberg’s report, confirming no formal talks on the F-35 have taken place yet. Meanwhile, the U.S. has slapped 25% tariffs on Indian imports due to a failed trade deal, escalating tensions. Trump also announced India would face a penalty over its continued defense ties with Russia. This deepening rift could impact U.S.-India defense cooperation and reshape future arms procurement.

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.
