Rahul Gandhi Backs Trump’s ‘Dead Economy’ Jibe on India — Statement Backfires Amid National Outrage

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has stirred controversy after endorsing Donald Trump’s recent comment calling India a “dead economy.” Gandhi said he was “glad Trump stated a fact,” drawing sharp criticism from across the political spectrum. What was intended as a dig at the Modi government quickly backfired, with critics accusing Gandhi of siding with a foreign leader to malign India on the global stage. #RahulGandhi #TrumpDeadEconomy #DeadEconomyComment #RahulBacksTrump #IndianEconomyDebate #RahulGandhiSpeech #TrumpIndiaRemark #RahulVsModi #RahulGandhiControversy #EconomyPoliticalRow #RahulTrumpRemark #IndianEconomyCrisis #CongressVsBJP #RahulGandhiNews #TrumpIndiaEconomy #DeadEconomyClaim #RahulGandhiPolitics ~PR.152~HT.408~ED.420~GR.122~

Trump Vs Medvedev: Medvedev Warns Trump Of War Over Ultimatum, Trump Calls Him 'Failed…' In Rebuke

A war of words has erupted between Donald Trump and Dmitry Medvedev after the former Russian president issued a veiled threat warning Trump against issuing ultimatums to Moscow. Medvedev, in a social media post, said each ultimatum brings the world closer to war—"not between Russia and Ukraine, but with your own country." Trump responded with fury, calling Medvedev a "failed former President" and warning him to "watch his words" or face consequences. The U.S. President also slammed India over trade tariffs, saying their economy and Russia’s were “dead” and would “sink together.” Trump had recently warned Russia of new sanctions if it didn’t agree to a ceasefire within 12 days. The Kremlin said it had “taken note” of Trump’s latest demands. With tensions mounting, the episode highlights rising geopolitical friction and personal animosity at the top levels of power. #Trump #Medvedev #RussiaUSA #IndiaRussia #TrumpWarning #MedvedevThreat #UkraineWar #Putin #DonaldTrump #Ultimatum #TruthSocial #RussiaSanctions #Geopolitics #USIndiaTies #TradeWar #WhiteHouse #BidenVsTrump #G20Fallout #CeasefireDeal #GlobalTensions ~HT.318~ED.346~

South Africa FUMES at Trump’s 30% Tariff Bombshell | Will Ramaphosa Choose China Over the U.S.?

In a major international development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a sweeping 30% tariff on all goods imported from South Africa, set to begin on August 1. In a letter, Trump claimed South Africa's trade policies are "far from reciprocal," prompting this drastic measure. The White House has indicated that these tariffs could be adjusted based on the future of US-Pretoria relations. Responding swiftly, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has sharply pushed back, labelling the tariff a "contested interpretation" of the current trade reality. In a statement from his office, Ramaphosa highlighted that South Africa's average tariff on imports is a modest 7.6%, and a staggering 77% of all U.S. goods enter the country completely duty-free. He has tasked a special team to urgently engage with U.S. officials on the matter. High-stakes negotiations are already underway. U.S. and South African officials have met in Angola to discuss tariff relief and market access. South Africa's trade ministry is pushing to delay the deadline and negotiate a new framework, with sources indicating they are seeking to cap the duty rate at 10% as a potential compromise. The international community is watching closely as a Press Secretary Leavitt has hinted at a possible delay, leaving the future of US-South Africa trade hanging in the balance. #TradeWar #SouthAfrica #DonaldTrump #BreakingNews #WorldNews #USA #CyrilRamaphosa #USTrade #LatestNews #OneindiaNews #BreakingNews #30PercentTarif Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~

'Will have to PAY BIG PRIZE' |Trump THREATENS 10% Tariffs on BRICS Nations over De-Dollarisation Bid

Donald Trump issued a bold warning to BRICS nations—Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—accusing them of trying to “undermine the dollar.” Trump declared a 10% tariff would hit any country aligning with BRICS or challenging U.S. currency dominance. “The dollar is king. We’re going to keep it that way,” he asserted. The statement signals Trump’s aggressive stance on global finance and hints at harsh penalties for nations embracing BRICS’ alternative trade frameworks or currency cooperation. #TrumpVsBRICS #DollarIsKing #TrumpTariffs #BRICSWarning #USDollarDominance #CurrencyWar #TradeThreat #Geopolitics #Trump2024 #TrumpSpeech #GlobalFinance #BRICSEconomies #USSanctions #10PercentTariff #TrumpForeignPolicy #EconomicShowdown #BreakingNews #TrumpNews #BRICSExpansion #Dedollarization #CurrencyChallenge #TariffThreat #AmericaFirst #USVsBRICS Also Read Trump Condemns Brazilian Authorities for Alleged Witch Hunt Against Bolsonaro :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-criticises-brazilian-authorities-witch-hunt-bolsonaro-011-7794385.html?ref=DMDesc US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~

Hamas CELEBRATES BRICS Statement SLAMMING Israel’s ‘GENOCIDAL’ WAR in Gaza | Backs Ceasefire Call

Hamas welcomed the BRICS summit statement demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and full Israeli withdrawal. The BRICS communiqué accused Israel of using starvation as a weapon of war and condemned its ongoing military siege. With over 57,400 Palestinians killed, BRICS backed Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital. Hamas urged BRICS nations-including China, Russia, and South Africa-to intensify global pressure on Israel’s blockade and occupation. The group also reaffirmed support for UNRWA and denounced aid politicization in Gaza. #GazaUnderSiege #BRICSSummit #FreePalestine #StopTheWar #GazaCeasefire #HamasStatement #EndTheOccupation #PalestinianRights #IsraelWarCrimes #GazaBlockade #StarvationAsWeapon #UNRWA #BRICSForPalestine #GazaCrisis #EastJerusalem #GazaDeathToll #HumanitarianDisaster #BRICS2025 #GazaResistance #WarOnCivilians #PalestineWillBeFree #MiddleEastCrisis #InternationalPressure #GlobalSolidarity #JusticeForGaza #CeasefireNow #BRICSDiplomacy Also Read BRICS Leaders Push For India And Brazil's Inclusion As Permanent Members Of UN Security Council :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/brics-leaders-push-for-india-and-brazils-inclusion-as-permanent-members-of-un-security-council-7794021.html?ref=DMDesc There Should Be No Hesitation In Imposing Sanctions Against Terrorists: PM Modi At BRICS :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/there-should-be-no-hesitation-in-imposing-sanctions-against-terrorists-pm-modi-at-brics-7793415.html?ref=DMDesc Hamas Leader Muhammad Sinwar Killed In Israel's Air Strike :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/hamas-leader-muhammad-sinwar-killed-in-israels-air-strike-4156915.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.124~

‘Kamala Should Be Jailed!’ Trump ACCUSES Democrats Of Illegal Celebrity Payments | 2024 Elections

U.S. President Donald Trump has ignited a political firestorm by accusing the Democratic Party of committing “fraud” during the 2024 election campaign. In a Truth Social post, Trump claimed that Democrats paid millions to celebrities for endorsements—an act he called “totally illegal.” He alleged $11 million was funneled to Beyoncé, $3 million to Oprah Winfrey, and $600,000 to Reverend Al Sharpton. Trump emphasized that none of the celebrities performed or contributed meaningfully, calling it a misuse of campaign funds and accusing them of falsifying financial records. He concluded with a demand for the prosecution of Vice President Kamala Harris and others “who broke the law.” Trump's latest explosive allegations have reignited debates on the legality of political endorsements, celebrity influence in elections, and campaign financing ethics. His claims, if proven, could carry legal and electoral consequences. The White House and Democratic Party are yet to respond. #TrumpVsKamala #EndorsementScandal #CelebrityFraud #BeyoncePolitics #TrumpTruthSocial #KamalaHarris #ElectionFraudClaims #CampaignCorruption #PoliticalEndorsement #OprahWinfrey #DonaldTrumpNews #Sharpton #DemocratsScandal #IllegalPayments #BreakingPolitics #TrumpAllegesFraud #2024ElectionControversy #TruthSocialPost #TrumpDemandsProsecution ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.125~
