IndiaTimes Tuesday, 20 May 2025
Days after calling the 1960 treaty a "historic mistake", Union agriculture minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Monday met farmers organisations and explained to them how the then PM Jawaharlal Nehru signed the treaty despite opposition from experts. He said that Nehru not only agreed to give water to Pakistan at the cost of India but also gave Rs 83 crore to the neighbouring country, whose value now amounts to Rs 5,500 crore.

BREAKING: Trump’s Pro-Pakistan Pivot |Rewards Pakistan, Hits India With Penalties Over Russian Deals [Video]

BREAKING: Trump’s Pro-Pakistan Pivot |Rewards Pakistan, Hits India With Penalties Over Russian Deals

In a dramatic and controversial trade move, U.S. President Donald Trump has announced a major oil partnership with Pakistan just hours before slapping India with a harsh 25% tariff and an additional penalty. While praising Pakistan’s “massive oil reserves,” Trump hinted that the oil might one day be sold to India—ironically, after penalising New Delhi for its trade practices and energy ties with Russia. Trump accused India of having “obnoxious trade barriers” and being the “largest buyer of Russian energy,” saying these actions were “not good” while Russia continues its war in Ukraine. The stark contrast between Trump rewarding Pakistan and punishing India—one of the U.S.'s strategic partners—has raised eyebrows globally. Critics say Trump is punishing allies and appeasing others for transactional gain, even at the cost of long-term diplomatic trust. #Trump #India #Pakistan #USIndiaRelations #TradeWar #OilDeal #TrumpTariff #MAGA #RussiaUkraine #Geopolitics #SouthAsia #Modi #TrumpSnubsIndia #EnergyPolitics #USPakistanDeal #TradeDeficit #TariffWar #TrumpControversy #BreakingNews #IndiaUS

BREAKING: China DARES U.S. to Hike Tariffs | Trump Warns Beijing After India Hit With 25% Penalty

Just hours after Trump’s warning of secondary tariffs on China and India, Beijing has responded with bold defiance. China’s Foreign Ministry declared it will defend its energy and economic interests, warning that “tariff wars have no winners.” Trump’s recent tweet threatens a 25% tariff on India for Russian oil deals—raising questions on who’s next. China, now importing more oil from Russia than ever, has signaled that further U.S. pressure may backfire. As Trump sets a 10-day deadline for Russia to agree to a peace deal, global tensions rise fast. #Trump #China #India #TariffWar #TradeTensions #BeijingResponse #TrumpTweet #USChina #USIndia #GlobalTrade #RussiaSanctions #ChineseOilImports #Modi #EnergySecurity #Geopolitics #Tariffs #TrumpVsChina #ChinaIndiaUS #EconomicPolicy #BreakingNews #ForeignPolicy #TradeCrisis #TrumpTariffs #ChinaRetaliation #IndoUSRelations #RussiaOil #TrumpSpeech #ChinaWatch #TradeAlert #MFAResponse #TariffShowdown Also Read Govt Of India Reacts To US' 25% Tariff Announcement, Says Will Take Decisions In National Interest :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/govt-of-india-reacts-to-us-25-tariff-announcement-says-will-take-decisions-in-national-interest-011-7816125.html?ref=DMDesc Chemistry Professor Sentenced To Life For Husband's Murder In Madhya Pradesh :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/chemistry-professor-sentenced-to-life-for-husbands-murder-in-madhya-pradesh-011-7816095.html?ref=DMDesc Bihar Truly Stands Apart!” — CM Rekha Gupta Inaugurates Global Outreach Summit 2025 :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/global-outreach-summit-2025-bihar-industrial-vision-012-7816081.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.420~
