US President Donald Trump said today that India has offered to cancel the tariffs on American goods under a potential trade agreement. If this is realized, it may represent a significant breakthrough with a very important trade partner for the US.
“India is the country with the highest quotas in the world, one of the highest. It is very difficult to sell to India, and they have offered us an agreement where, in fact, they are ready to charge us a customs,” Trump said during a circular table with businessmen in Qatar.
The president explained that India’s customs rates on American goods are “so high” that they prevent the existence of significant trade between the countries. The White House has been visiting India’s high tariffs for a long time, including 70% on vehicles, 20% on communication equipment, and 80% on rice imports. In addition, the White House voltage is criticized for non -monetary trade barriers, including gravitational regulation on importers.
Therefore, removing the lids, if this is India’s proposal, will be a welcome change for American companies who want to export their products to the world’s most popular country. “They really told us, I guess you too, Scott (Finance Minister Scott in St., AO) that there will be no customs, right? Would you say it’s a change? They were one of the highest, and now they say there is no customs, “Trump said.
India’s Ministry of Trade and Industry did not respond to the request for a response to many media from the United States.
The United States is India’s largest trade partner as of 2024, but India is ranked only tenth in the US trading partnership list that year. The US’s commercial deficit against India is expanding, when the US imports from India in 2024 goods worth $ 45.7 billion more than it exports, according to the US Data.
Trump has cast a basic tax of 10% on all of the U.S. goods, and threatens to impose “mutual customs” at even higher rates in early July.
Last month, the White House estimated that American goods exports to India may increase at least $ 5.3 billion a year, if India removes trade barriers, but it is unclear how Trump’s household members reached these numbers.
The main products that the United States imported from India last year included medication, communication equipment, such as smartphones, and clothing.

Regarding conversations about a nuclear agreement, Trump said “we are very close” to reach the deal. “If we succeed, it will be fantastic,” he added.
Remember, the president opened the journey on Saudi Arabia, which pledged to invest $ 600 billion, including one of the biggest deals ever to purchase American weapons. And on his visit to Qatar – there he welcomed a $ 200 billion record for buying Boeing aircraft.
The generosity of the Gulf leaders also acted sharply within the US, after Qatar gave Trump a luxury aircraft for his visit – first for use as president and then for his personal use – the course of his democrats called blatant corruption.
Trump, who also chose his first term to open his political visit to Saudi Arabia, never hid his will with money from the bay, and praised the impact that it had on the creation of jobs in the US.
