🚨‘Enormous mistake’: Former #TRUMP aide says 50% tariff on India could backfire for US 🚨

🔴 Former US National Security Advisor, John Bolton, has sharply criticized Donald Trump’s 50% tariff on India, calling it an "enormous mistake" that could push India closer to Russia and China.

💬 What Bolton Said:

Bolton warned on CNN that the tariffs, aimed at hurting Russia, might unintentionally drive India into the arms of Russia and China, undermining decades of effort by the US to separate India from these nations. "Trump’s tariffs against India are intended to hurt Russia, but they could push India closer to Russia and to China."

⚖️ Tariff Impact on US-India Relations:

Bolton criticized the inconsistency in US policy, pointing out that China is given a more lenient tariff treatment while India faces punitive measures. He remarked, "Trump's leniency on the Chinese, and heavy-handed tariffs on India, jeopardise decades of American efforts to bring India away from Russia and China."

📉 Economic Fallout:

He further cautioned that this approach could result in a loss of trust between the US and India, potentially eroding decades of collaboration for minimal gains.

🇮🇳 India’s Stance:

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed India’s commitment to protecting farmers, dairy farmers, and fishermen. At the MS Swaminathan Centenary International Conference, he declared, "India will never compromise on the interests of farmers and fishermen."

⚡ The Key Takeaway:

Bolton's warning underscores the risk of damaging geopolitical relations and economic losses for the US while potentially strengthening the bond between India, Russia, and China.
