Any trade deal between India and the US has to respect New Delhi’s “red lines” and efforts are underway to find a “landing ground”, External Affairs Minister $ Jaishankar said Sunday amid strain in ties between the two countries over Washington's policy on tariff.

In an interactive session at an event, Jaishankar acknowledged having issues between India and the US and that many of them are linked to the inability to firm up the proposed trade deal. The external affairs minister said an understanding on trade between the two sides was necessary as the US is the world's largest market but at the same time noted that India's red lines should be respected.
