KARACHI: US President Donald Trump’s move to double tariffs on Indian goods presents a “strategic opening” for Islamabad to deepen its trade partnership with Washington, Pakistan’s finance adviser Khurram Schehzad said on Thursday. Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday to place an additional 25 percent tariff on India on top of a 25 percent tariff that went into effect on Thursday. The move made India one of the most heavily taxed US trading partners in Asia. Pakistan, India’s traditional arch-rival, has meanwhile improved its ties with Washington.
