The election, which centred largely on Trump’s tariffs & threats of making Canada 51st state of the US, saw the NDP crash to 4th place. Jagmeet Singh also lost his own seat.
Singh lost his seat in the House of Commons, one he's held since 2019, coming in third. The NDP has also lost its official status, failing to secure the 12 seats necessary.
Singh said his party, 4th largest in the House, was tearing up an agreement struck with Trudeau’s Liberal Party in 2022 that allowed the Canadian PM to lead a minority government.
India’s fledgling defence industry has struggled to translate capacity into mass production or compete globally, resulting in continued reliance on imports.
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.
