US Proposes 25% Tariffs on Indian Imports Amid Trade Tensions
US President Donald TRUMP announced sweeping tariffs of up to 25% on Indian imports, set to take effect August 1, 2025. The move targets India's high trade barriers and its continued military-energy cooperation with Russia during the Ukraine conflict.
Additional penalties may accompany the tariffs, reflecting Washington's escalating efforts to rebalance what it views as unequal trade terms. The decision underscores deteriorating economic relations between the two nations as the US takes a harder line on global trade partners.
