India - US Tariff and Relations | News + Updates

Helluva cope you got there raj!
When China announced counter tariffs and sanctioned rare earths... it hurt US more. India is playing in US hands... US lost appetite for making India a counterweight on its dime... cutting off Indian access to US markets is IN orange interest, a tangible that can be shown as reflection of success.
Only if India had something to offer in lieu... in this case he wants the house. Of course India will balk at that... it is counterintuitive to everything India had gotten itself used to...
In fact, the failure of peace deal with Russia, which included removal of sanctions on Russian oil, will pave the way for harsher tariffs. For orange India remains the low hanging fruit.

Do something about that if you can... instead taking it on the chin... which everyone knows you are... not a trophy... but I guess Indians will gulp it right up...

China did because it can. And for the very same reason USA couldn't dare to sanctions China further.

And you believed that it's permanent?

India just keep doing what she is doing, we are okay to loose some businesses then sovereignty

Only a few nations keeping their sovereignty, rest mostly already have surrendered to the USA and west.

Nope, it is a deal between countries and USA. The deal is economic in nature.

It is not about sovereignity at all. For example, Indian agriculture farming is similar like in US, no complementary like Indonesia for example who dont grow wheat, corn, cotton and soybean. We more on rice, palm oil, coffe, rubber, tea, wood, cassava, chili, sago, mango, durian etc that US doesnt produce/not their farming export products.

For those who has made huge investment pledge to US like Japan, Korea, Malaysia dont have huge domestic market like Indonesia to absorb their farming products, so they add the deal with investment to US.

Indians from what I see from their TV comments, forum, twitter, etc now sound more like Iranian after what happened between US and India by saying those which make a deal have lost their soveregnity and become US vassal. That is very simplistic kind of thinking.

In India’s case, it’s more than just trading.

A trade war is only one face of the story. For the U.S., it’s not only about money — it’s also about strategic and geopolitical alignment. If you want a strong trade relationship with the U.S., you’re often expected to also accept certain geographical, tactical, and strategic demands.
This is a new game initiated by Trump, and India was not prepared for it. At the same time, India could not bend under pressure either. If the U.S. continues to push too hard, it may actually reshape strategic realignments in the region, with India likely moving even closer to Russia.

Not the case with india!

It's More than trading!

Yes it could be, I just said that saying those countries who make a deal lost their sovereignity are wrong. It is more on take and give in economic perspective. As US has huge market, so countries need to make consesion in busines term.
 
It's not insult but trophy, it means that india is not ready to bend and accept what USA is demanding

India is looking at the future and it wants to integrate with Brazil, Israel, Russia and China. These nations represent nearly 50+% world population if you include India too.

India's done what it wanted to do with the USA, took their $3.5 trillion, grew it's economy and put in millions of people inside the US for future political influence. Now the USA demands India do what it promised, to stand with them and go against Russia and China. India is saying well, we took your money and that was all we wanted. We fooled you and you became a fool.


Every other day the Americans insult India. Indian leadership retaliates by making threats against Pakistan.

What's all that about? 🤔

They can't threaten the daddy. So they'll threaten the one who they think is weaker.

Pakistan, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka are their fall back nations. Chicken and Cats fight in India and the blame goes to Pakistan or some other smaller country.

India never promised anything!

You will never find any statement from indian leaders - it's false news spread by pak media in Pakistan.

If you are sure - share any evidence where any indian leader promised anything like that.

But we have already cleared a few years ago-

Raj, why quad?
The Quad is about strategic cooperation in the Indo-Pacific, mainly as a counter to China’s border extension policy and influsion... And Russia has limited presence in the Indo-Pacific.

I hope - you not mixing with china to Russia..

Russia is non-negotiable for india with anyone!
 
Juvenile raj! Business is but a part of the whole. Unless there is a compromise of sorts this is going down... yous acted tough played with big guys... you thought you were one... well here is one ...
A trade war is always about give and take — everyone knows that.

But this goes beyond just trade. The U.S. is placing demands on India not only in terms of economic concessions, but also in matters of national interest and strategic alignment.

That is something India simply cannot accept.

You are good - don't worry! We don't decide based on short-term benefits, what we are doing - based on long-term benefits. We don't much care about this issues because it will not last for much longer period.

Aah, that Russia!
Exclusive: Ammunition from India enters Ukraine, raising Russian ire | Reuters

Or, this Russia ...

At least Chinese know what they're in for
Yes, Russia already know that because it was not sold to the Ukraine.

It was happened due to compliance gaps in end-user monitoring, rather than any direct intent by India. It was sold to other countries but redirected to Ukraine.

Again, USA is targeting india and claiming that Russia is ready to talk because we are targeting india - it's shows the value of india.

When I got punched in the face it meant the other guy had to make a fist with his hand and hurt his knuckles, so in reality I won....
