Modi says relations with US ‘very positive’ after ties sour following Trump’s tariffs

New Delhi: Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that New Delhi’s ties with Washington are still “very positive” as US President Donald Trump’s imposition of steep tariffs on Indian exports puts a strain on relations between the two countries. Last month, the US hiked the total duty on Indian exports to 50 percent in retaliation over India’s continued purchases of Russian oil. That is the highest level in Asia and one of the highest ever imposed on a major trading partner by an American administration.
