Washington, Jul 31 (PTI) US President Donald Trump once again mounted a sharp attack on India and Russia for their close ties and said he doesn't care what New India does with Moscow.

They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care, he said in a fresh social media post, hours after announcing 25 per cent tariffs on imports from India.

"I don't care what India does with Russia. They can take their dead economies down together, for all I care," he said.

"We have done very little business with India, their Tariffs are too high, among the highest in the World," he added. PTI MPB GRS GRS

Import tariffs imposed on India signal trade retaliation and diplomatic pressure tied to geopolitical alignments. The executive announced a 25 per cent tariff on imports from India, justified by India's high tariffs and limited bilateral trade, framing the measure as a response to perceived tariff imbalances and linking it to diplomatic concerns over India's ties with Russia; the statement combines a concrete trade restriction with political rhetoric to signal economic pressure.
