News Trump-advisor Peter Navarro calls the Ukraine war Modi's war! Says Indians are arrogant for being sovereign and refusing to bow to America's demands.
Trump @ this point
The India tarrifs do make sense though, the trade disbalance is crazy
US imports twice as much from India as it sells to it, while India only buys Russian energy

First 25% makes sense. Additional 25% due to jewkraine war doesn't.
Most third world countries have 25% so India remains competitive in low yield industries at that rate
The additional 25% was framed as related to Ukraine so that Trump could score a single win regarding Russia once they make a deal with Modi
Ah I see. Makes sense. Neocons really fucked up Trump. Trump could've just levied 50% on India based on trade alone, and that would make sense, although, I think the result would be the same: India China team up and solidification of BRICS alliance.
