In a recent post on Truth Social, President Donald Trump voiced sharp dissatisfaction with India’s high tariffs and trade relations with Russia, drawing attention from global experts.
Criticism of India's High Tariffs
Trump characterized India's high tariffs as "among the highest in the world" and noted that the U.S. has done "very little business with India" owing to these barriers, which he deemed unfair.
**"We have done very little business with India, as their tariffs are too high,"** he wrote in his post.
Comments on Russia and Medvedev
Trump also expressed his views on relations with Russia, highlighting the need for minimal business relations. His blunt remark was: **"Russia and the USA do almost no business together. Let’s keep it that way."**
Additionally, he warned Dmitry Medvedev, former president of Russia: **"Medvedev... who thinks he’s still president... is entering very dangerous territory."**
Global Reactions to the Post
Although the tweet was not an official policy statement, it sparked concern among crypto traders and international analysts. Experts believe such comments could influence future Trump trade deal talks if he returns to power. In India, many political observers found his tone undiplomatic, although U.S.-India economic ties have shown growth in recent years.
This Trump post on Truth Social underscores his intention to maintain a hardline stance on trade and international diplomacy. His strong remarks about India's tariffs and trade with Russia could impact the future foreign economic direction of the U.S.
