US President Donald Trump has raised tariffs on Indian goods to 50% over India’s purchase of Russian oil. This has strained ties between the two countries. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is now moving closer to China. Reports say direct flights between India and China may resume next month. Modi could announce the deal during his visit to China for the SCO meet on August 31. China has also eased curbs on urea exports to India. Experts say Trump’s move may push India towards stronger ties with both China and Russia, changing regional power dynamics. (PC: HT)
