India's offer to eliminate all tariffs on US goods was swiftly dismissed by former President Donald Trump, who labeled the proposal as "too late" and criticized the bilateral trade relationship as "one-sided." The rejection, communicated via Truth Social, underscores escalating trade tensions following recent US tariffs of up to 50% on Indian exports.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's concurrent attendance at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit in China adds geopolitical weight to the dispute. The timing highlights India's balancing act between Western trade partnerships and strengthening ties with non-aligned economies through BRICS and related forums.
