🚨 Breaking News🔥
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has issued a firm response to U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to impose a 50% tariff on Indian imports, a move prompted by India's continued purchases of Russian oil. Speaking at the MS Swaminathan Centenary International Conference in New Delhi, Modi emphasized India's unwavering commitment to its agricultural sector.
> "For us, the interest of our farmers is our top priority. India will never compromise on the interests of farmers, fishermen, and dairy farmers. I know we will have to pay a heavy price for it, and I am ready for it. India is ready for it," Modi stated. [1]
This declaration underscores India's stance on protecting its domestic agricultural interests, even in the face of escalating trade tensions with the United States.
The U.S. administration has linked the increased tariffs to national security concerns, citing India's oil trade with Russia amid the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. In response, India has criticized the move as unjust, pointing out that other nations, including members of the European Union, continue similar trade practices without facing comparable penalties.
