US-SCO Relations: Silent Presence of America at Tianjin Summit | How RIC views US

US SCO Relations are in the spotlight as leaders gather in Tianjin, China, for the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit. Though Washington is not a member, US SCO Relations continue to shape discussions, from trade tariffs to military standoffs. For India, the 50% US tariff and criticism over Russian oil imports highlight the tension in US SCO Relations. For China, America’s containment strategies and Indo-Pacific moves cast a shadow over regional cooperation. As Russia, India, and China explore alternatives, the silent influence of US SCO Relations reminds the world that Washington remains a decisive factor, even outside the room. #USSCORelations #SCOSummit2025 #USIndiaChina #GlobalDiplomacy #SilentParticipant

Nikki Haley SLAMS Trump tariff threat to India over Russia| ‘Don't burn ties & give China free pass'

Nikki Haley has sharply criticized Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian goods over New Delhi’s Russian oil purchases, calling the move "strategically dangerous." In a viral post on ‘X’, the former UN Ambassador warned Trump not to “burn a relationship with a strong ally like India” while giving China a tariff pause. Haley emphasized the importance of U.S.-India ties amid rising Chinese influence in the Indo-Pacific, exposing deep divisions within the GOP on trade and foreign policy strategy. #NikkiHaley #TrumpTariffs #IndiaUSRelations #RussiaOil #ChinaPolicy #GOPDivide #HaleyVsTrump #StrategicAlliance #IndoPacific #EnergySecurity #TrumpVsIndia #ForeignPolicy #TariffThreat #GlobalTrade #USIndiaTies #HaleySpeaksOut #WhiteHouse #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #EconomicSanctions #TradeWar #HaleyOnTrump #ChinaInfluence #TariffPolitics #AmericaFirst #RussiaTies #TrumpBacklash #XPost #IndiaTrade #HaleyWarning Also Read Trump-Modi, Negotiate Like Real Friends: Singer Mary Millben's Advice To India-US Amid Tariff Threat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-modi-negotiate-like-real-friends-singer-mary-millbens-advice-to-india-us-amid-tariff-threat-7821507.html?ref=DMDesc Don't Know Anything About It: Trump On India's Claims On US Buying Russian Chemicals, Fertilizers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dont-know-anything-about-it-trump-on-indias-claims-on-us-buying-russian-chemicals-fertilizers-7821499.html?ref=DMDesc Kremlin Hits Out At US Prez Trump For Threatening India For Buying Russian Oil :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/kremlin-hits-out-at-us-prez-trump-for-threatening-india-for-buying-russian-oil-7821423.html?ref=DMDesc

India Hits China Where It Hurts Most, Teams Up With China’s Top Rival As Beijing Fumes | Details

In a bold diplomatic and military move, India hosted Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. with full state honours—while simultaneously dispatching warships for joint patrols in the South China Sea. INS Delhi, INS Shakti and INS Kiltan sailed alongside Philippine vessels inside Manila’s exclusive economic zone, triggering a subtle yet unmistakable warning to China. The Indian Ministry of External Affairs reaffirmed support for freedom of navigation, calling the waters part of the “global commons.” The joint drill coincided with Marcos’ five-day India visit, where the two nations signed a landmark Strategic Partnership agreement to boost defence, maritime cooperation, disaster relief and cyber security. While India didn’t name China, Beijing’s rebuke of “third-party interference” left little ambiguity. The coordinated political hospitality and military manoeuvres signal India’s rising Indo-Pacific assertiveness and a strategic alignment with one of China’s fiercest regional rivals—firmly placing New Delhi in the emerging anti-China security web across the Indo-Pacific. #IndiaPhilippines #SouthChinaSea #ModiMarcos #IndiaChinaTensions #IndoPacific #MaritimeSecurity #PhilippinesNavy #IndianNavy #FreedomOfNavigation #UNCLOS1982 #StrategicPartnership #IndiaDefence #ChinaPhilippinesTension #BeijingWarning #IndoPacificSecurity #IndiaWarships #ModiForeignPolicy #MarcosInIndia #GeopoliticsAsia #IndiaChinaRivalry

India Breaks Silence On Trump’s Tariff Threat Amid Strategic Talks With Philippines On Trade [Video]

India Breaks Silence On Trump’s Tariff Threat Amid Strategic Talks With Philippines On Trade

India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has finally addressed the rising buzz around Donald Trump’s proposed tariffs on Indian exports. During a high-level media briefing that followed Prime Minister Modi’s meeting with Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr., the MEA clarified that no direct discussion took place on Trump’s recent tariff threats. Instead, the focus was on strengthening India-Philippines trade ties, expanding product diversity, and cooperation in space technology. India showcased its cost-effective space capabilities, with both countries expressing interest in launching and developing satellites together. The Philippines also supported India’s call to expedite the ITAGA trade review. While the Trump tariffs remain unaddressed formally, India is clearly moving to diversify partnerships and preempt economic turbulence. The strategic dialogue underlined India’s growing regional influence, especially in light of evolving Indo-Pacific geopolitics and rising trade protectionism from Washington. #IndiaUSRelations #TrumpTariffThreat #MEAStatement #IndiaPhilippines #SpaceCooperation #TradeTalks #ModiMarcosMeeting #IndianExports #IndoPacific #MEAResponse #DonaldTrumpNews #IndiaTradeStrategy #TariffNews #USIndiaTensions #PhilippinesIndiaTies #ITAGAReview #IndianSpaceProgram #ForeignPolicyIndia #TrumpIndia #EconomicDiplomacy
