How Trump’s ‘America-first’ agenda will push India-US friendship to its limit

Firstpost  

US President-elect Donald Trump has shared bonhomie with India over the years. The bear hugs and bonhomie both men have shared during their official encounters belie Trump’s occasionally aggressive posture towards New Delhi in his first term, when he dubbed India a “tariff king” and “trade abuser”. Trump pledged to impose “reciprocal” tariffs on countries that have trade surpluses with the United States, a move that could stymie industries in the world’s fifth-largest economy. Reuters Trump’s reprisal of his aggressive first-term trade policy will again be primarily aimed at China “but won’t leave India unaffected,” he added. U.S. President Donald “He’s a friend of mine,” Trump said of the Indian leader on a podcast hosted by comedian Andrew Schultz last month.
