On Thursday, October, Prime Minister Narendra Modi spoke to the President of the United States Donald Trump to congratulate him on the peace plan in Gaza, where Israel and Hamas agree to stop the war and exchange prisoners. During the interview, PM Modi said, both leaders also reviewed the ongoing business negotiations and noted “good progress” despite the 50 % tariffs that Donald Trump imposed on Indian imports.
PM Modi added that he and Donald Trump agreed that they would remain in close contact in the coming weeks. In the paper on X, PM Modi, he said, “He spoke to my friend, President Trump and congratulated him on the success of the historic peace plan in Gaza. He also reviewed good progress in business negotiations. He agreed to stay in the coming weeks.” ”
Trump deposited 50 % tariff on most exports from India, among the highest for every American business partner. From tariffs, Indian officials have encountered Trump administration officials during commercial negotiations. The tariffs doubled to Indian goods of 25 percent compared to the continuing import of Russian oil of the new Delhi.
While Washington says that Indian purchase of Russian oil has helped to finance the Russian war in Ukraine, the new Delhi refused to accuses as a double standard and pointed to US business ties with Moscow.
