'If India doesn’t matter to them ...': Shashi Tharoor calls for 50% tariff on US; asks why stop at 17%
Thursday, 7 August 2025 () Speaking about the potential impact of 50 per cent US tariffs, Tharoor remarked, "It will have an impact because we have trade of about $90 billion.

If our competitors, Vietnam, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, China, will sell products at a lower cost... it will have an impact."

At a press conference, Donald Trump fiercely distanced himself from the Ukraine war, calling it “Biden’s war” and vowing to end it. Responding to a shocking question about Ukraine conscripting elderly men and individuals with Down Syndrome to fight on the front lines, Trump said, “I haven’t heard that... but I’m here to get us out.” He claimed the war would’ve never happened under his leadership and criticized the Biden administration’s continued funding of Ukraine’s military, which he described as “scraping the bottom of the barrel.”
Trump touted his record of stopping five wars and promised Ukraine would be the sixth. He also referenced diffusing tensions between India and Pakistan “within days.” The remarks have reignited debates over American military aid and raised concerns about ethical limits in wartime conscription. Trump’s statement drew applause from some, shock from others, and further polarized an already divisive foreign policy debate.
