Tariffs, Visas, Sanctions: US-India Ties Under Strain | Vantage on Firstpost | N18G

The U.S.–India relationship is going through one of its toughest phases in recent years. First came the 50% tariffs on Indian goods, then the shock H-1B visa fee, and now U.S. sanctions on two Indian nationals accused of producing fentanyl-laced counterfeit pills. Washington insists these measures are about security and jobs, but New Delhi sees them as unfair pressure. At the same time, America is pushing India to cut Russian oil imports — even as President Trump warns of further action at the UN. Indian ministers in Washington are trying to steady the relationship, calling discussions “constructive” and pushing for trade talks to resume.
