Trump to slash India tariffs after Modi ‘agrees’ to stop buying Russian oil

Levies will drop from 50% to 18% as US president claims New Delhi will buy more than $500bn of American goods

Donald Trump said the US would lower its tariffs on India to 18 per cent after Prime Minister Narendra Modi “agreed” to halt purchases of Russian oil, ending months of trade friction between the countries. 

The president said he spoke with Modi on Monday and had discussed “many things”, including trade, ending the war in Ukraine and the possibility of India buying more oil from the US and even Venezuela.

“Out of friendship and respect for Prime Minister Modi and, as per his request, effective immediately, we agreed to a Trade Deal between the United States and India, whereby the United States will charge a reduced Reciprocal Tariff, lowering it from 25% to 18%,” Trump said in a Truth Social post on Monday.
