Tariff war: Did Modi government misread Trump 2.0? Democratic Newsroom debates

In this edition of the Democratic Newsroom, the focus is on US President Donald Trump's tariff threats against India for purchasing Russian oil. Days after threatening to raise tariffs against India, Trump on Wednesday announced an extra 25 per cent trade tariff on India, taking the total tariff to 50 per cent. Trump imposed this additional tariff despite the US' good ties with India and his bonhomie with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. So, what does it really mean for India-US ties? Can India 'Trump' US on tariffs? Did the Modi government misread Trump 2.0? Watch as India Today's editors share their perspectives on these and more on the show.
