Trump’s BIG STATEMENT on Trade Deal with India | ‘India a good friends...just can’t do that’

U.S. President Donald Trump has hinted at a possible trade deal with India but warned of steep tariffs if no agreement is reached by August 1. Calling PM Modi a "friend," Trump criticized India’s high tariffs on U.S. goods, threatening 20–25% duties if talks stall. The U.S. had earlier imposed a 26% tariff, now suspended during negotiations. With the fifth round of trade talks just concluded, officials say discussions continue as the deadline nears, with another round slated for August 25. #IndiaUSTradeDeal #TrumpOnIndia #ModiTrump #TradeTalks2025 #TariffThreat #USIndiaRelations #TrumpStatement #TradeDealUpdate #BilateralTalks #HighTariffs #USIndiaTrade #TrumpModi #TradeDeadline #EconomicPolicy #TrumpTariffs #BreakingNews #GlobalTrade #IndiaUSAgreement #TradeNegotiations #WashingtonTalks #PMModi #Trump #August1Deadline #TrumpWarnsIndia #TrumpSpeech #ModiDiplomacy Also Read Trump Reaches Silver Jubilee of India-Pak Ceasefire Claim, PM Totally Quiet: Cong :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-reaches-silver-jubilee-of-india-pak-ceasefire-claim-pm-totally-quiet-cong-7807665.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Accuses Obama Of 'Treason,' Without Providing Evidence :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-accuses-obama-of-treason-without-providing-evidence-7807491.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Japan Trade Deal With 15% Tariff On Imports :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-japan-trade-deal-with-15-tariff-on-imports-7807489.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.346~GR.125~
