“Modi’s War"? Why the US is Playing Good Cop, Bad Cop with India | Vantage with Palki Sharma | N18G

Do you know what a good cop, bad cop routine looks like in geopolitics? Washington is testing India’s resilience with tariffs, threats, and carefully placed conciliatory remarks. On one side, you have Peter Navarro, the White House trade advisor, calling the Ukraine conflict “Modi’s war” and accusing India of “getting in bed with authoritarians.” On the other, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is striking an optimistic tone, insisting the U.S. and India will eventually work together. Palki Sharma decodes Washington's strategy.
