Former U.S. Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley has urged President Trump to rapidly repair the strained relations with India, cautioning that losing such a key democratic ally would mark a “strategic disaster.” Writing in Newsweek, she emphasized India’s critical importance as a counterbalance to China, particularly in supply chain diversification. Haley highlighted that while China—as a Communist state—faces fewer trade barriers, India, a democratic partner, is being penalized with tariffs. She underscored that undermining 25 years of U.S.–India strategic momentum would not just be unwise—it would severely damage American credibility in Asia. (PC: X)
