USA imposes 25% additional tariffs, PM calls it ‘unfair’

USA has announced an extra 25 per cent tariff on India as penalty for the continued import of Russian crude oil. He had earlier threatened tariffs of 100 per cent unless a peace deal is signed by August 9. However, India has strongly criticised the decision taken by USA President, calling the move ‘unfair, unjustified and unreasonable.’ India will never compromise on the interests of its farmers, livestock rearers and fishermen brothers and sisters. I know personally that I will have to pay a heavy price for this, but I am prepared for it,” the PM said in a statement.
