Trump Slaps Heavy Tariffs on India: ‘Friend’ Modi Treated US Unfairly – Claims Trade War Justified

In a shocking trade move, Donald Trump has imposed heavy tariffs on India, claiming that despite his friendship with PM Modi, India has treated the US unfairly with high import duties. The US President argues that this is a justified retaliation against India's "52% tariffs," hitting back with a 26% levy. Meanwhile, key rivals like Russia and North Korea remain exempt.

Iran to Strike US With Nukes First? Iranian MP Calls For NUCLEAR BOMBS After Trump’s Big Warning

Iran to Strike US With Nukes First? Tensions between the US and Iran escalate as Iranian MP Ahmad Naderi calls for nuclear weapons following Donald Trump’s warning of unprecedented bombing if Tehran refuses a nuclear deal. Drawing parallels with North Korea, Naderi argued that possessing nuclear arms would deter US threats. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowed retaliation against any US attack, further deepening the crisis. With Trump’s renewed ‘maximum pressure’ policy, the risk of a major confrontation looms over the region. #Iran #TrumpIran #DonaldTrump #IranNuclear #TrumpWarning #TrumpVsIran #IranNuclearDeal #TrumpThreat #IranCrisis #TrumpOnIran #USIranTensions #MiddleEastConflict #IranTrumpNews #Geopolitics #TrumpAdministration Also Read Iran Flexes Military Muscle, Unveils Underground 'Missile City' Amid Rising Tensions With US | WATCH :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-flexes-military-muscle-unveils-underground-missile-city-amid-rising-tensions-with-us-watch-4110019.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Iran: Strike A Nuclear Deal In Two Months Or Face Unprecedented Bombing :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-iran-strike-a-nuclear-deal-in-two-months-or-face-unprecedented-bombing-4109797.html?ref=DMDesc Is It Blood Or Beauty?

Pakistan travel ban threat looms as Donald Trump’s administration considers broader restrictions on 41 nations.
