Trump threatens India again.
After India clearly stated "it will not bow down or show weakness", US President Trump posted on his "Truth" social platform on September 1, directly pointing out that the US-India trade relationship is "unfair," saying that India now proposes to reduce the tariff on American goods to zero, but "it's too late." He also complained that India mainly imports oil and military supplies from Russia, but rarely purchases from the United States.
Currently, India is facing a 50% "reciprocal tariff" from the United States, with 25% of the additional tariffs directly pointing to India's import of oil from Russia. However, instead of yielding to the threat, India has become even more resolute. Indian Prime Minister Modi made a key decision: while attending the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Tianjin Summit, he repaired relations with China and deepened cooperation with Russia. Trump's strong pressure has ironically become a "pusher" for improving Sino-Indian relations and a "catalyst" for strengthening Russia-India collaboration. His attempt to force India to compromise through tariffs has already failed.
