President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced sweeping and substantial tariffs on India, one of America’s most important trading partners. In addition to a 25% tariff that is set to go into effect Thursday,

US President Donald Trump's imposition of tariffs on India is both "unfair and unworkable", especially when Europe remains the world's largest importer of Russian energy in dollars and the biggest contributor to Russian revenues,

In an executive order, Trump says "I find that the Government of India is currently directly or indirectly importing Russian Federation oil" and due to those purchases, imports of Indian goods into the United States "shall be subject to an additional ... rate of duty of 25%."
