Donald Trump, US President.
New York/Washington: US President Donald Trump, who imposed 50 percent tariffs on India on purchasing crude oil from Russia, has been surrounded by his own country. Democrats have strongly criticized for his decision. Democrat members of the US Congress Foreign Affairs Committee have strongly criticized President Donald Trump’s policy in which India was specially targeted to buy Russian oil, while no concrete action was taken against big buyers like China.
Why action against India instead of China?
Posting on the social media platform ‘X’, Democrat MPs said, “Instead of banning the biggest purchase of Russian oil, China or other countries, the Trump administration has targeted India through tariffs, causing damage to American consumers and is also getting upset in Indo-American relations. It seems as if it is not a matter of Ukrain’s support.”
Trump’s footsteps in policy: Democrats
The MPs, citing an article in the New York Times, said that if the Trump administration had talked about imposing secondary (secondary) ban on all countries who bought Russian oil, it would have been clear, but only by keeping India in the center, this policy is looking “most misleading and biased. Because the biggest ethics of Russian energy is still buying oil at any punitive action without any punitive action.
Trump spoiled strategic relations with India
Trump has spoiled relations with India by imposing tariffs and additional charges on India. The Trump administration has imposed a double fee on India. 25 percent mutual fee and additional 25 percent fee on purchase of Russian oil. Regarding this move, Democrat MPs say that this is not only causing losses to American consumers as prices, but it is also deteriorating relations with strategic partners like India.
Increasing attitude over India’s criticism
Democrat MPs argue that if the defense of Ukraine is the purpose of Trump, then the policy should be equally implemented to all countries, not only India. It is clear from this criticism of Democratic members that there is a serious disagreement over Trump’s strategy within the US. (Language)
