00:00Bombshell. Calling America's trade with India a one-sided disaster. He's slamming New Delhi

00:05for sky-high tariffs, accusing India of shutting out American businesses while at the same time

00:09buying billions in oil and weapons from Russia. Is Trump right? And what does this mean for U.S.-India

00:14relations and the global balance of power? Let's break it down. On Truth Social, Trump posted,

00:20What few people understand is that we do very little business with India, but they do a tremendous

00:24amount of business with us. It has been a totally one-sided disaster for decades. He argues India

00:30has charged some of the world's highest tariffs, blocking U.S. companies from entering their market.

00:34According to him, New Delhi offered to reduce tariffs to almost nothing, but, as Trump says,

00:39it's getting late. Here's why this statement is shaking headlines. The U.S. and India are supposed

00:44to be strategic partners, especially as Washington looks to counter China. But Trump is painting a

00:50picture of imbalance, where India sells huge amounts of goods to the U.S., but buys very little

00:55in return. And let's not forget, the U.S. is India's biggest export market. So when Trump calls

01:00it a disaster, he's hitting at a core issue, mutual fairness and global trade. India is known for high

01:05tariffs on cars, technology, and agriculture. For example, American-made Harley-Davidson motorcycles

01:10once faced import duties of 100%. U.S. tech companies have long struggled with regulations in India.

01:16Even agriculture exports face multiple barriers. Trump is essentially saying,

01:21if American businesses can't sell in India, why should India sell so much here?

01:25But Trump didn't stop at trade. He also criticized India for buying most of its oil and military

01:30equipment from Russia instead of the U.S. India is one of the largest buyers of Russian crude oil,

01:34especially since sanctions pushed Russia to look east. And when it comes to defense,

01:38India has relied on Russian jets, tanks, and missiles for decades. Trump's point,

01:43why is India buying from Russia our rival instead of supporting American industry?

01:47This hits at both economics and geopolitics. All this comes just after Indian Prime Minister

01:52Narendra Modi met with Chinese President Xi Jinping and Russian President Vladimir Putin

01:56at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in Tianjin, China. The image of Modi shaking hands

02:02with Xi and Putin while Trump criticizes India adds fuel to the story. It raises questions.

02:07Is India moving closer to Russia and China while drifting away from the U.S.?

02:12Trade fairness has always been one of his strongest campaign themes. By targeting India,

02:16he's telling American workers, I'll fight for your jobs. I'll make sure foreign countries don't rip us

02:20off. With 2024 elections in the air, this is both a foreign policy critique and a campaign message.

02:25So where does this leave us? If Trump wins back the White House, expect tougher trade negotiations

02:29with India. Expect pressure on India to buy more American oil, gas, and weapons instead of turning to

02:34Russia and expect global ripple effects because India is one of the fastest growing economies in

02:39the world. Donald Trump calling U.S. India trade a one-sided disaster is more than just a headline.

02:45It's a warning shot at New Delhi, a campaign message to American voters, and a reminder that global trade

02:50politics are shifting fast. But what do you think? Is Trump right about India's high tariffs and Russian

02:55oil deals? Or is this just election season talk? Drop your thoughts in the comments and don't forget to
