Trump administration

The former US officials asserted that it is imperative for US partners to “impress on their Indian interlocutors that US President Donald Trump's theatrics are often the prelude to dealmaking."

Richard D Wolff called Navarro “not the sharpest knife in the drawer”, asserting that anyone who has a trade relation with Russia is in some way making money off that trade because that is why trade happens.

It seems that even Trump administration’s officials have taken note of the anti-Brahmin rhetoric in India unleashed by Congress and other anti-BJP parties and realised that this narrative can be used to get things done and pressure the Modi government into acting as per US’s whims.

After Denmark’s public broadcaster, DR, reported that three US citizens were involved in a secret plan to secede Greenland, Denmark’s Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen summoned the top U.S. diplomat in Copenhagen.

The committee questioned the US administration's intent behind tariffs against India, remarking, "It's almost like it's not about Ukraine at all."

Since assuming office for the second time this year, Donald Trump has adopted a stringent approach towards legal as well as illegal immigration coming to the US.

In an interview with Bloomberg, White House Trade Adviser Peter Navarro blamed India for being the reason behind the US and Europe funding Ukraine against Russia’s aggression.

John Bolton described Trump's tariffs against India as a "lack of focus' and "unforced error" which pushed India closer to Russia and China.

The same US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent who accused India of profiteering from Russia-Ukraine war, was seen gloating over US’s strategy of selling weapons to Europe intended for Ukraine with a 10% markup.

Scott Bessent declared plans to slap more tariffs after accusing "wealthy Indian families" of gaining from Russian oil deals.
