US President Donald Trump said India has offered to cut tariffs on American goods to “nothing,” but called the trade relationship “one sided.” Writing on Truth Social, Trump claimed India sells large amounts to the US but buys little in return, blaming high tariffs. His comments came as Prime Minister Narendra Modi met Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin at the SCO summit in China. The three leaders showed solidarity amid tensions with Washington. Trump also criticised India’s oil and defence imports from Russia, saying the tariff offer came “too late.” (PC: Bloomberg, Reuters)
