As India is facing global isolation, Trump is continuously pressuring Modi. This development comes after India is pursuing to buy oil from Russia instead of America, raising tensions between the two countries.
Earlier, Trump warned India that he may jack up tariffs on India if PM Modi does not comply with Washington’s demand to cut purchases of Russian oil, turning the screws on the South Asian country as trade talks remain unfinished.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a good guy. He knew I was not happy, and it was important to make me happy,” Trump told the reporters.
In response to a question on India’s Russian oil purchases, Trump warned India, stating, “They do trade, and we can raise tariffs on them very quickly.” India’s commerce ministry did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Trump’s comments follow months of trade negotiations after the U.S. doubled import tariffs on Indian goods to 50% last year as punishment for its heavy buying of Russian oil.
