The world is discussing why US President Donald Trump imposed the highest tariff on India. People in the US are also worried about Indian goods becoming costlier after the tariff was enforced. Trump’s advisers are adding fire to the flames. His trade adviser Peter Navarro went to the extent of labelling the Russia-Ukraine conflict as ‘Modi’s War’. Another of his close advisers, Kevin Hassett, US National Economic Council director, accused India of “intransigence” in opening up its markets for American products. Hassett said, “If the Indians don’t budge, I don’t think President Trump will.”
