President Trump announced a 25% tariff increase on Indian goods, citing India's purchase of Russian oil. This brings the total tariffs imposed on India to 50%. The move comes amidst ongoing, but stalled, trade negotiations between the U.S. and India, despite a seemingly warm relationship between Trump and Prime Minister Modi. India called the additional tariffs "unfortunate." The tariffs will take effect in 21 days. These actions strain the relationship between the two nations.
