šŸŽ™ļøIndia has unexpectedly become a key target in Washington's latest push to pressure Russia over the Ukraine war.

šŸŽ™ļøOn Wednesday, Donald Trump doubled US tariffs on India to 50%, up from 25%, penalising Delhi for purchasing Russian oil - a move India called "unfair" and "unjustified". The tariffs aim to cut Russia's oil revenues and force Putin into a ceasefire. The new rate will come into effect in 21 days, so on 27 August.

šŸŽ™ļøThis makes India the most heavily taxed US trading partner in Asia and places it alongside Brazil, another nation facing steep US tariffs amid tense relations.
