Kuki rebel groups are wary of central govt’s talks with NSCN (I-M) and delay in their own talks due to the Covid-19 pandemic, which they label ‘procrastination’.
On 3 August 2005, Atal Bihari Vajpayee spoke in Lok Sabha and warned that the India-US nuclear deal could compromise India's strategic autonomy in the long run.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
India-Russia JV is also racing to deliver 7,000 more AK-203 assault rifles by 15 Aug. These are currently being made with 50% indigenisation and this will surge to 100% by 31 December.
Public, loud, upfront, filled with impropriety and high praise sometimes laced with insults. This is what we call Trumplomacy. But the larger objective is the same: American supremacy.
