Complicated negotiations: Jaishankar

- PRESS TRUST OF INDIA

US President Donald Trump Thursday claimed that India has offered to drop all tariffs on American goods.

Speaking at a business roundtable in Doha, Trump also said he had a 'little problem' with Tim Cook, and he told the Apple CEO that he does not want him to build iPhones in India. Trump, who is in Qatar as part of his four-day visit to the Gulf region, was talking about Apple's plans to make iPhones in India.

"I said to him (Cook), my friend, I am treating you very good. You are coming up with $500 billion, but now I hear you are building all over India. I don't want you building in India. You can build in India, if you want to take care of India because India is one of the highest tariff nations in the world, so it is very hard to sell in India," Trump said.
