Washington, July 30: US President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced that \u201cfriend\u201d India will be paying a 25 per cent tariff from August 1.
\nIn a post on Truth Social, Trump noted that despite being friends, India and US have done relatively little business.
\n\u201cRemember, while India is our friend, we have, over the years, done relatively little business with them because their Tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the World, and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non-monetary Trade Barriers of any Country,\u201d he wrote.
\nThe US President added, \u201cAlso, they have always bought a vast majority of their military equipment from Russia, and are Russia\u2019s largest buyer of ENERGY, along with China, at a time when everyone wants Russia to STOP THE KILLING IN UKRAINE \u2014 ALL THINGS NOT GOOD! INDIA WILL THEREFORE BE PAYING A TARIFF OF 25%, PLUS A PENALTY FOR THE ABOVE, STARTING ON AUGUST FIRST. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER.
