As Trump's tariffs kick in, PM Modi makes BIG statement at India-Japan Economic Forum: 'Capital does not just grow, it multiplies in India'
Friday, 29 August 2025 () This marks PM Modi's first standalone visit to the country in nearly seven years, aimed at deepening bilateral ties and advancing the Special Strategic and Global Partnership with Japan. The visit comes at the invitation of Japanese Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba.
A German daily, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ), has claimed that Donald Trump tried calling PM Narendra Modi four times after imposing a 50% tariff on Indian goods—yet Modi never picked up. The paper headlined the report “Trump Calls, But Modi Doesn’t Answer”, noting India’s refusal...
Washington’s high-stakes pressure campaign against India has backfired. Despite unprecedented tariffs and repeated threats over Russian oil imports, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has refused to bend. Russian crude still accounts for nearly one-third of India’s imports, and refiners show no signs of slowing down. Reports suggest Modi even ignored four calls from Donald Trump, signaling India’s sovereignty is not for sale. Instead of bowing, New Delhi is deepening its BRICS diplomacy — sending top aides to Moscow, hosting Chinese foreign minister Wang Yi, and preparing for a landmark trip to China where Modi will meet Putin at the SCO summit. For the US, the outcome is bitter: higher prices for its own consumers, while India expands its strategic clout. As global power balances shift, Modi has made it clear — India won’t be bullied.

Venezuela has escalated tensions with the United States as President Nicolás Maduro ordered 15,000 troops to the Colombia border amid the arrival of three US Navy warships off Venezuela’s coast. The dramatic military build-up comes as Washington accuses Maduro of leading a massive cocaine-trafficking cartel, while Interior Minister Diosdado Cabello vowed to combat drug cartels “on all fronts.” The United States has doubled its bounty on Maduro’s capture to $50 million and is reportedly preparing to deploy 4,000 Marines to the region. Meanwhile, Caracas has seized 53 tons of drugs this year but rejects US claims, instead accusing Washington of plotting regime change. With Venezuelan tanks moving toward border zones and US destroyers patrolling nearby waters, the risk of a direct military clash between Trump’s forces and Maduro’s army is higher than ever. The standoff threatens to spiral into one of the most dangerous flashpoints in the Americas.

Russia has flatly denied any agreement on an air ceasefire with Ukraine, with Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov declaring “no deals have been reached.” The rejection came amid speculation of a temporary truce after the Alaska peace talks with Trump. Instead, Russia intensified its aerial assault, launching nearly 600 drones and 31 missiles overnight on August 28. Kyiv was hit hardest, with hypersonic Kinzhal strikes killing at least 18 civilians, including 12 in Darnytskyi, as the war enters an even deadlier phase.
