In this discussion, former US trade official Harry Brodman analyses the escalating trade tensions between the Trump administration and India. Brodman, who served in both the George W. Bush and Clinton administrations, addresses the perception of the US acting as a ‘big bully’ and delves into the rationale behind the aggressive posturing. The conversation covers accusations of American ‘double standards’ in its trade dealings, particularly when comparing its approach to India versus China. It also touches upon President Trump’s reported anger over the Indian Prime Minister’s meetings with Russian and Chinese leaders at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation summit. Brodman’s core advice for New Delhi is consistent: remain calm and do not react to personal attacks. He offers the memorable quote, "Don’t feed the beast," expressing confidence that if cooler heads prevail, a trade deal between the two democracies can be reached.
