(US President Donald Trump) US President Donald Trump is currently in the spotlight. Sometimes he is seen taking a tough stance on India, while at other times he is seen openly praising India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Due to these contradictory positions, everyone's attention is on his statements.

Currently, discussions about trade are ongoing between India and the United States. At such a time, Donald Trump has made positive statements about Prime Minister Narendra Modi. He has called Modi his close and trusted friend. He also clarified that India is an important country for the United States in the Indo-Pacific region. Trump highlighted India's importance by posting about it on social media.

However, on the other hand, Trump's decisions have created tension in India-US relations. After Trump became president for the second time, a large import duty was imposed on India. Especially, the 50% tax on Indian goods strained the relations between the two countries further. Thus, on one hand, there are restrictions on India, and on the other hand, there is praise for India, reflecting Trump's stance.

Donald Trump, in his post, referred to India as a country with one of the world's oldest and richest cultures. He noted that India is a country filled with history, tradition, and values, and is an important partner for America. He also mentioned that the friendship between the two countries has strengthened under the leadership of Narendra Modi.

Meanwhile, it is reported that last week Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Donald Trump had a discussion over the phone. This conversation is given special importance as it took place while the final stage of trade talks is underway. Although discussions are ongoing, no final agreement has been reached yet.

Against the backdrop of all these developments, Russian President Vladimir Putin visited India. During this visit, several agreements were made between India and Russia. Putin came to India with some Russian ministers and important agreements were completed in a short time.

In the month of August, the United States increased import duties on Indian goods. Subsequently, trade talks between the two countries have gained momentum again. Experts say that if a trade agreement between India and the United States is successful, there is a possibility of reducing the heavy duties imposed on India.
