Modi Seeks Closer Ties on Asia Tour to Offset Fallout From US Tariffs
Mint Ahmedabad
|August 29, 2025
Prime Minister Narendra Modi heads overseas on Thursday to meet the leaders of China, Japan and Russia, seeking to build closer diplomatic ties as New Delhi battles fallout from US President Donald Trump's escalating tariff offensive.
By drawing nearer to some of the world's largest economies, including his first visit to China in seven years, Modi hopes to boost support for his flagship "Make in India" initiative, mainly from Japan, as Trump's measures spur new partnerships.
"This will be an opportunity to launch several new initiatives to build greater resilience in the relationship, and to respond to emerging opportunities and challenges," foreign secretary Vikram Misri said of the Japan visit.
While New Delhi says it is relying on talks to resolve Trump's additional tariffs of up to 50% on Indian exports, Japan's top trade negotiator cancelled a US visit over a snag in the two nations' tariff deal.

Donald Trump’s tariffs could soon be toast
Three justices—Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh and Clarence Thomas—seemed keen to find a way to save Mr Trump's tariffs. Justice Kavanaugh noted Richard Nixon’s invocation of an earlier law to impose a 10% tariff in 1971 and a 1976 decision upholding import fees. Incol-loquy with Neal Katyal, the lawyer representing businesses opposed to the tariffs, Justice Alito mused that not all tariffs are designed to raise revenue. In his closing, Mr Sauer built on Justice Alito’s notion that tariffs are not taxes but “leverage” to coerce trading partners “to change their behaviour”.
