‘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~
