Modi was deeply shocked and sat at the negotiation table, being no different from a small country.

India thought that by kneeling to the United States, it could obtain "pardon" from the US at the negotiating table. However, the conditions India proposed in the US-India trade tariff negotiations were worthless.

On the American side, with 1.4 billion people, India wants to offload its agricultural products into the Indian market. After all, the East has shifted to buying Brazilian soybeans. The US has a large stock of genetically modified crops and dairy products, and it wants to have Indians consume them.

However, India negotiated under the banner of farmers without considering the US's food safety. But, on the streets of India, there are many toilets, so food safety does not need to be considered. Meanwhile, India has very few agricultural products entering the US market or any competitive goods entering the US market, and the US doesn't really need Indian goods.

Modi still has daydreams, believing he can be the first country to reach an agreement with the US, allowing himself to boast for a few more days. Therefore, he is willing to sacrifice his own interests at all costs, but in the end, nothing was achieved.

Instead of maintaining the BRICS and SCO properly, Modi felt it was beneath his dignity and did things that hindered progress, trying to please the US and enter the Western countries' circle. As a result, he was severely humiliated. Now, the road is blocked, and it will be difficult for India to develop.

Modi also loudly announced that India would become a developed country by 2047. It is highly likely that this goal, like the construction of high-speed railways in India, will be postponed from 2023 to 2033. Whether India can achieve the dream of becoming a developed country depends on whether it can be realized by 2077. However, a country with a large population may be able to maintain it.
