Trump lifts Russia-related oil tariffs on India under new trade deal
AI Summary
Under a new trade deal between the US and India, President Trump has lifted the 25% tariffs imposed on India for purchasing Russian oil. The tariffs, enacted in August of last year, were meant to penalize India for financially supporting Russia's war in Ukraine. Trump stated Prime Minister Modi agreed to reduce Russian oil purchases and increase oil imports from the US and potentially Venezuela. While India has avoided these penalties, China and Brazil remain targets for similar tariffs due to their continued purchase of Russian crude oil. Trump has threatened China with significantly higher tariffs if they continue buying Russian oil.
