Trump Tariffs News | Putin Calls India 'Economic Giant', Slams Western Hegemony
Russian President Putin hailed India as an 'economic giant,' stressing that in a multipolar world all nations have equal rights and rejecting Western-style hegemony. Speaking after the SCO summit in Beijing, where he met Chinese President Xi Jinping and our Prime Minister Modi, Putin said BRICS never discusses domination despite including India and China. His remarks came amid India's trade dispute with the U.S., after Donald Trump imposed a 50 percent tariff on Indian goods, citing Russian crude imports. While Trump dismissed India's economy as "dead," it posted a robust 7.8 percent growth in April-June.
