Trump warned that the United States could impose additional tariffs if India keeps importing oil from Russia.
Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, Trump said India must consider US concerns seriously on the Russian oil issue. India USA News reports that Trump described Modi as a good leader but made it clear that his dissatisfaction was well known to the Indian government.
The US President said trade relations matter greatly in this situation. He added that the United States could raise tariffs on Indian goods very soon. Trump stressed that India does business with the US, and trade policies could change quickly if concerns remain unaddressed.
