India Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Donald Trump in the White House, Washington, D.C. (Ben Curtis/AP/File)EA on India’s News 9 — Trump Administration’s 50% Tariff and Trash Talk of “Dead Economy” IndiaEA-Times Radio VideoCast — A “Lose-Lose” Tariffs Framework with Europe…and Trump Is Still An Economic MoronUPDATE, AUG 29:For a different perspective on Donald Trump’s 50% tariff punishment of India, I joined Pakistan’s PTV World on Wednesday for a 30-minute discussion. I set out India’s position and options amid the “shakedown” by Trump and advisors such as Peter Navarro. And I knock back the statement that India’s Modi Government is doomed by the developments. They have decided that because India is not grateful enough to Donald Trump, especially over the clash with Pakistan in April, they are going to punish it. The other panellists are Ambassador Jayant Dasgupta, Dilip Chenoy of the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry, and Professor Rakesh Mohan Joshi.
