If Trump’s reciprocal actions push India to lower tariffs, it is actually good for us. Indian oligarchs should face global competition, and consumers will benefit from increased choice.

After Trump’s phone call with Putin, European self-righteous critics find themselves on shaky ground—vulnerable and forced to restrategise.
Steadily declining tariffs. Ease of doing business for the SMEs. Joining trade groupings like RCEP. Becoming embedded in value chains.
