Former US National Security Advisor John Bolton has issued a big warning — Trump’s latest 25% tariffs on Indian goods (because of India’s Russian oil imports) might actually backfire.
💡 What’s Going On
The idea was to punish Russia, but Bolton says this move could unintentionally push India towards closer ties with Russia and China, hurting decades of US efforts to bring India closer to the West.
🗣 Bolton’s Words
In a CNN interview, he said:
> “Trump’s tariffs are meant to hurt Russia, but they may drive India closer to China and Russia.”
Bolton also called it a huge strategic mistake, saying that giving China softer tariff treatment while being tough on India is “counterproductive” for America.
📉 Why It Matters
Could harm US–India relations
Might strengthen anti-US alliances
Risk of long-term geopolitical loss for America
🇮🇳 India’s Reaction
India has called the tariffs “extremely unfortunate,” pointing out that other nations also buy Russian oil but aren’t penalized the same way. If China continues getting better treatment, India’s resentment could grow.
🌍 Global Ripple Effects
This isn’t just about trade — it’s about the shifting balance of power. If the US pushes India away, it might end up closer to America’s biggest rivals.
