Trump Targets India's Oil Trade with Russia

In a controversial move, former US President Donald Trump has declared his intention to raise tariffs on India substantially. He accuses the nation of buying considerable quantities of Russian oil and subsequently selling it for handsome profits on the open market.

Trump's criticism comes amid heightened geopolitical tensions, suggesting that India's trade actions are disregarding the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, exacerbated by Russia's military strategies. The implications of such trade practices are a point of contention between the US and India.

Trump's announcement highlights the complexities of international trade and political strategies at play, reflecting the intricate dynamics between economic interests and global conflicts. The proposed tariff hike by Trump marks another chapter in the evolving US-India trade relations.
