🇺🇸 @Donald Trump posted on Truth Social:
Remember, while 🇮🇳 India is our friend, we have, over the years, done relatively little business with them because their Tariffs are far too high, among the highest in the World, and they have the most strenuous and obnoxious non-monetary Trade Barriers of any Country.

Also, they have always bought a vast majority of their military equipment from Russia, and are Russia’s largest buyer of ENERGY, along with China, at a time when everyone wants Russia to STOP THE KILLING IN 🇺🇦 UKRAINE — ALL THINGS NOT GOOD! INDIA WILL THEREFORE BE PAYING A TARIFF OF 25%, PLUS A PENALTY FOR THE ABOVE, STARTING ON AUGUST FIRST.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. MAGA!
I don’t care what India does with Russia. They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care. We have done very little business with India, their Tariffs are too high, among the highest in the World.

Likewise, 🇷🇺 Russia and the USA do almost no business together. Let’s keep it that way, and tell Medvedev, the failed former President of Russia, who thinks he’s still President, to watch his words. He’s entering very dangerous territory!

🇺🇸 A dying empire on its last days.

The US is crashing out after BRICS stayed loyal to Russia. He's also threatening Brazil for trading with Russia.

Absolutely pathetic to witness.

Two countries that’s sustaining Russia war in Ukraine are India and china. India is only taking advantage of the cheaper Russia oil in discounted price and refined to sell to neighboring countries and exports to Africa. India have a very large poor population that depends on cheaper energy needs. To them it’s a win win as long as the war continue and they get oil for a discount. And sadly some of the finish produce find there way to Europe because the world is now so integrated with one another. Europe is the biggest loser if the war failed in it objective it would only make Russia stronger.

It seems Trump's plan is to kick out Russian energy which would lead to a price hike in crude oil and gas which will greatly profit American companies.

Yes, "Drill baby drill!"

Edit

I might have been too quick to judge.

It seems Trumps real agenda is to impoverish Russia into ending this nasty war. He is using sanctions rather than spending US funds to achieve that goal which isn't a bad idea.

Russia may simply have no choice but to sell its crude oil at massive discounts to sustain sales. If 25% isn't enough, it may be jacked up further. I feel 100% would be the magic number to crush Putin.

Putin has turned Trump into a laughing stock on the world stage by bombing Ukraine willy-nilly to mock him.

The dying economy is still going around threatening everyone. Petrodollar is all you've got.

Keep printing the green paper, that's all your economy is good for.

Three countries that are currently sustaining US today is Saudi Arabia, Japan and Qatar.

US would have been begging for food. This 3 countries have taken advantage of the gigantic US debt to buy up nearly every company in the US.

And they get to dictate the rules in the US, since they're literally paying for it. If they decide to dump US debts today, the inflation in the US will be generational.

Without these 3 countries the US is finished.

Trump is failing USA how can you be closing business with China 1.3bn market.

Seems India can't be manipulated if not as USA and India Share same resentments towards china , isn't India 1.4bn market the only live wire to USA global trade dominance in next decade since both share same Democratic system of government unlike china? .

Imagine if this Trump position is implemented looking at the existence of BRICS and current isolation of EU and Canada from USA .. with daily increase of alliance of African countries and many other countries towards Russia and China new order system ... Wouldn't it be said that Trump policy is the signature to elimination to America global systems ... Maybe USA just wanted to be USA as country managing it's people alone not a country controlling global systems

India has over a billion people who need oil and gas.
Now, imagine you as the Indian PM, a country offers you oil at even a 10% discount, do you know what that will do to the economy of your country? China and India combined are almost 3 billion people, who need cheap oil and gas to function very well due to demand and supply, what Russia is offering them can't be got anywhere, not even Saudi Arabia can try that, because Saudi need oil at least over 50/60 dollars for her economy when Russia only need at 40 dollars.

Instead of Trump finding a way, he is threatening every BRIC member, thinking they are EU leaders who bow to the USA.
Look at the EU economy due to the stop of Russian cheap oil and gas, nobody knew the EU economy was due to cheap Russian oil and gas, when the EU ran to Saudi and Qatar, those said that the price Russia was offering them is impossible for Gulf nations to do the same

Who told you the US is the most powerful nation on earth?

From Trump ramblings, it doesn't appear so.

They want you to think so.

China is undisputed number 1. The American dream is made in China.

Pathethic, yes. Surprising, no.
I like what he's doing by very clearly showing everyone how his country can never be trusted in anything. No more pleasing words from a likable killer like Obama. Instead, this obese racist, child rapppist and bbuffon proudly talks rubbish that is sure to irk allies and enemies alike. That's the kind of thing that will hasten the end of this devilish empire. So, it's all good.
