ट्रम्प के कदमों से भारत-यूएस रिश्ते गर्मजोशी खो बैठे: सांसद का आरोप

US representative Sydney Kamlager-Dove says, "When Trump took office at the beginning of this year, the Biden administration handed him a bilateral relationship at the height of its strength... These were hard-earned accomplishments and the product of strategic discipline from our two countries. And then what happened? Flush, flush, flush down the toilet, the capital that Americans have built over decades in service of Trump's personal grievances and at the expense of our national interests. Unless he changes course, Trump will be the American president who lost India. or more accurately, who chased India away while revitalising the Russian empire, while breaking up the transatlantic alliance, and menacing Latin America. That is not a legacy any president should be excited about having. When the history books are written about where Trump's antagonism towards India began, they will point to something that has nothing to do with our long-term strategic interests. his personal obsession with a Nobel Peace Prize. While that is laughable, the harm that it will cause is not. Singling out India for 50 % tariffs, one of the highest rates imposed on any country, has effectively derailed leader-level meetings between our two countries. Yet the 25% tariff on imports of Russian oil attributed to India looks pretty pointless when Steve Witkoff is striking backroom deals with Putin's advisors to sell out Ukraine in exchange for some business investment... Beyond tariffs, Trump has also attacked the people-to-people ties between the US and India. The $100,000 fee on H-1B visas, 70% of which are held by Indians, is a rebuke of the incredible contributions Indians have made to science, technology, medicine, and the arts in the United States."
