This report examines the escalating trade tensions between the United States and India under the Trump administration. The discussion delves into whether US tariffs and trade demands are painting India into a corner. One analyst asserts that India’s commitment to an independent foreign policy and "friendship without dependence" is a decades-old principle that will not change. The conversation highlights how the US is targeting independent powers in the global south, such as India and Brazil, with high tariffs while pursuing deals that demand zero tariffs on US imports. An analyst states, "if the Americans are desirous of making us a vassal state of the United States, then I’m afraid that’s not going to happen." This trade friction unfolds against a complex geopolitical backdrop, with the growing China-Pakistan nexus posing a significant security challenge for India. #usindia #tradewar #tariffs #foreignpolicy #geopolitics #donaldtrump #chinapakistan #strategicautonomy #globalsouth #wto #india #uspolitics #economy #southasia #brics
