US President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced a whopping 26 per cent ‘discounted’ reciprocal tariifs on India.
Speaking at the “Make America Wealthy Again” event in the Rose Garden, Trump said that charges imposed are not completely reciprocal in nature but partial
“For decades, our country has been looted, pillaged, and plundered by nations near and far, both friend and foe alike,” Trump said.
During a press conference in the White House Rose Garden, Trump referred to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who visited the US in February, as his “great friend” but criticized India for “not treating the US right.”
