"India never interferes in internal matters of other countries. They will take decisions on their domestic issues," he said.

"I am confident that in the coming days India will be able to conclude mutually beneficial trade deals with the US and other countries." He declined to say whether an agreement with the US could be concluded by July 8.
A senior commerce ministry official, speaking on condition of anonymity, also played down the US court ruling. "That is their legal battle. Why should we get into it? Our negotiations will go as it is."
A second official confirmed that a US delegation of trade representatives is scheduled to visit India for the next round of talks on June 5 or 6.
India's chief trade negotiator, Rajesh Agrawal, who is also the commerce secretary designate, echoed the minister's confidence. Addressing the summit, he said India had launched talks with the US before the retaliatory tariffs came into force, and that the broader aim was to tap into "natural synergy" between the two economies.
