‘Very Complicated …’ US Doubles Down On Strained Trade Ties With India As Modi Rejects Trade Deal [Video]

‘Very Complicated …’ US Doubles Down On Strained Trade Ties With India As Modi Rejects Trade Deal

The India-US relationship has entered turbulent waters after US treasury secretary Scott Bessent warned that despite being “very complicated,” the two nations would eventually “come together.” His remarks came as Washington’s additional 25% tariff on Indian goods took effect, punishing New Delhi for buying Russian oil. Combined with earlier duties, tariffs on Indian exports now reach a staggering 50%, hitting garments, jewellery, footwear, and chemicals—impacting over half of India’s $87 billion exports to America. Bessent accused India of “profiteering” off Russian crude and dragging its feet in trade negotiations, while India dismissed the tariffs as “unjustified” and “unacceptable.” External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar bluntly told the West, “If you don’t like it, don’t buy.” Despite rising tensions, Bessent expressed confidence that President Trump and PM Modi’s strong personal ties could eventually heal the rift. #IndiaUS #TradeWar #ScottBessent #USTariffs #RussianOil #Modi #Trump #IndiaExports #USIndiaRelations #Geopolitics #Jaishankar #GlobalTrade #EconomicWar #TariffShock #USIndiaTensions #IndoUS #TradeDeficit #RussiaOil #DiplomaticClash #BreakingNew ~ED.346~GR.122~HT.96~

Houthis STRIKE BACK: Israel Rattled as Missiles Target Key Sites | Israel’s Sanaa Strikes Backfire?

Yemen’s Houthis launched a “Palestine” missile toward Israel in retaliation for Israeli airstrikes on Sanaa, which killed six and destroyed key infrastructure. Air raid sirens echoed across Israel as the IDF scrambled interception systems amid fears of more attacks. Despite heavy Israeli bombing campaigns, Houthis remain undeterred, with over 50 missile launches in recent months. The strikes highlight the growing risk of a wider conflict, threatening Red Sea trade routes. As Netanyahu vows further retaliation, the region edges closer to a dangerous escalation. #Houthi #Israel #IronDome #MissileAttack #MiddleEastConflict #IDF #YemenWar #SanaaStrikes #Netanyahu #RedSeaCrisis #AirDefense #BreakingNews #GazaWar #HouthisVsIsrael #MilitaryTensions #WorldNews #Geopolitics #Houthis #MiddleEastNews #IsraelDefense #MissileCrisis #WarEscalation #HouthisAttack #YemenConflict #AirRaidSirens #EnergyInfrastructure #HouthisStrikeBack #GlobalTradeRisk #IsraelNews #HouthisMissile ~HT.96~GR.122~

All-Out Middle East War | Hamas ROARS at Netanyahu’s ‘Fascist Aggression’ as Israel STRIKES Houthis

The Middle East spirals into deeper chaos as Hamas vows revenge after Israeli airstrikes killed 10 people in Yemen’s capital, Sana’a. The strikes followed Houthi missile attacks on Tel Aviv, intensifying Israel’s two-front war. Hamas denounced Netanyahu’s “fascist aggression” and urged Arab unity, while Islamic Jihad signaled readiness to join the fight.
