🚨 U.S.–INDIA TRADE SHAKE-UP: A DEAL THAT CHANGES THE GAME 🇺🇸🇮🇳⚡
A major shift just hit global trade. Washington and New Delhi have reached a landmark agreement that dramatically reshapes U.S.–India economic relations.
Here’s the headline: only $30B of Indian exports to the U.S. will face 18% tariffs, while roughly $44B in goods move tariff-free. In today’s trade environment, that’s almost unprecedented.
What stands out even more? India protected all its red lines.
• No concessions on agriculture or dairy
• No changes on autos or steel
• Full policy control remains intact
On the flip side, India commits to purchasing $500B in U.S. goods, tied to a long-term economic and security cooperation framework.
This wasn’t a one-sided win — it was a calculated power move. India negotiated from strength, locked in its priorities, and walked away with favorable terms while boosting strategic ties with the U.S.
Publicly, Washington is celebrating. Quietly, the message is loud and clear for Beijing and other competitors: India is now a top-tier player at the global negotiating table. 🌍🔥
One of the most consequential trade developments of 2026 — and a signal that Asia’s economic balance is shifting fast.
