'We are not paying tariffs to them, they are': Trump on trade with India after SC ruling on sweeping tariffs

In a recent statement, former U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his strong stance on trade relations with India, asserting that the U.S. is not the one paying tariffs to India, but rather the opposite. This comment came in the context of a recent Supreme Court ruling that has implications for trade tariffs. Trump emphasized the ongoing negotiations, stating that the 'India deal is on' and praised his rapport with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, describing it as 'fantastic.' His remarks highlight the complexities of U.S.-India trade relations, particularly in light of tariffs that have been a contentious issue. Trump's administration had previously expressed concerns over India's high tariffs on a range of U.S. goods, which they argued hindered fair trade. As both nations navigate their economic ties, Trump's comments suggest a continued commitment to enhancing bilateral relations despite existing trade challenges.
