Prez Trump says tariffs on India caused 'rift', admits he could not solve Russia-Ukraine war

September 14, 2025

US President Donald Trump stated in a Fox News interview that US tariffs on Indian goods caused a "rift" with India and admitted that the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which he had expected to be the easiest to resolve, remains unresolved.

- AGENCIES Washington, 13 September

"India was their [Russia's] biggest customer, I put 50 percent tariff on India buying oil from Russia. That is a big deal and causes rift with India. Remember this, this is Europe's problem more than our problem," Mr Trump said.

Before discussing the tariffs on Indian goods, the US president admitted he has not been able to solve the Russia-Ukraine conflict, which he thought would have been the easiest.
