Former US ambassador makes massive statement, explains why Donald Trump imposed 50 percent tariff on India, lack of response led to...
Donald Trump- File image New Delhi: US President Donald Trump has imposed a steep 50 percent tariff on India over its purchases of Russian oil. The new rate will come into effect in 21 days, so on 27 August, according to the executive order. A response from India's foreign ministry said Delhi had already made clear its stance on imports from Russia, and reiterated that the tariff is 'unfair, unjustified and unreasonable'. To recall, in May, the Modi government outrightly rejected Trump's so-called role in the ceasefire with Pakistan. Former Indian ambassador and renowned author Vikas Swarup revealed that Trump's displeasure is also linked to India joining the BRICS organisation and refusing to bow to US pressure during trade negotiations. While talking to news agency ANI, the former Indian ambassador said that India–US relations are strategic, whereas US–Pakistan relations are merely a money game. The ambassador also praised India's firm stance. He also warned that Trump's tariffs would lead to a rise in inflation within the United States itself. What Vikas Swarup say: In an interview with ANI, Vikas Swarup, who is a former High Commissioner to Canada, said steps being taken by the US President Donald Trump will eventually lead to ratcheting up inflation in America. 'US called India a 'Tariff King'. But now the 'Tariff King' in the world is the United States because our average tariff is about 15.98%. The US tariff today is 18.4%. So, it is now the 'Tariff King' of the world. But the fact is, tariffs are bringing in money. They will bring in about a 100 billion dollars a year for the US. But the issue is that eventually who will pay for these tariffs? By American consumers. So, what's going to happen is this is going to ratchet up inflation in America, it's going to ratchet up prices in America. I think that's when the chickens will come home to roost,' he said. 'If you cave in to a bully then the bully will increase his demands. Then there will be even more demands. So, I think we have done the right thing. India is too large, too proud a country to become a camp follower of any other country. Our strategic autonomy has been the bedrock of our foreign policy right from the 1950s. I don't think that any Govt in Delhi can compromise on that,' says former diplomat Vikas Swarup on the tariff rift between India and the US,' he added. President Trump announced 25 per cent tariffs on Indian goods plus an unspecified penalty in July, even as there were hopes of an interim India-US trade deal that would have otherwise helped avoid elevated tariffs. A few days later, he imposed another 25 per cent tariff, taking the total to 50 per cent, over India's imports of Russian oil. On Opposition questioning India's Foreign Policy and diplomacy, Vikas Swarup said India should not cave in to any pressure as India's strategic autonomy is non-negotiable'. Here, I would not blame our diplomats at all. I think what has happened is Pakistan, through some intermediaries, has gotten the ear of the US President and that is why, two visits by Asim Munir to Washington, the so-called 'deal' with America on so-called 'oil reserves' of Pakistan. More importantly, I think Pakistan is now trying to position itself as the 'Crypto King' of South Asia and there, through World Liberty Financial in which Trump's family has stakes, Steve Witkoff's family has a stake, through that I think Pakistan has managed to project an image of itself as a reliable partner…All these things have led to Trump having a softer approach towards Pakistan,' he said.

Top 10 cities for your next workation: Mumbai makes debut at this place on global list
Top 10 cities for your next workation: In just a few years, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic, the way we work has transformed. The office is no longer the default, and for many professionals, the workplace can be anywhere with a strong internet connection. That's where the concept of a workation — part 'work,' part 'vacation' — comes in, letting you spend your mornings on video calls and your afternoons exploring a new city. A workation isn't just doing your job from different locations; it's about combining productivity with the pleasures of travel. Thanks to high-speed Wi-Fi, well-equipped coworking spaces, and a growing digital infrastructure, more destinations are catering to this lifestyle than ever before. Whether you're a remote employee, freelancer, or entrepreneur, the city you choose can make a big difference. Finding a location that combines stunning landscape, a thriving culture, and distinctive local experiences with practical necessities like fast internet, reasonably priced lodging, and comfy work arrangements is the sweet spot. This year, Mumbai made a noteworthy debut, scoring 73 out of 120 and landing in 36th place as an emerging workation destination. Known for its energetic business hubs and wide range of flexi-work spots, Mumbai also impressed for its cultural depth. The 'Queen's Necklace' at Marine Drive, its Art Deco architecture, and an unmatched food scene helped the city stand out. As IWG noted, Mumbai's mix of 'vibrant culture, music, and refined urban experiences' puts it in the same league as some of Asia's major economic powerhouses. Topping the 2025 list is Tokyo, with an impressive 91/120, praised for lightning-fast broadband, world-class transport, safety, and cultural richness. Rio de Janeiro came in second, followed by Budapest, Seoul, and Barcelona. Rome and Paris joined the rankings for the first time, taking the eighth and ninth spots. Other Asian cities in the spotlight include Jakarta, Beijing, Singapore, Manila, and Hong Kong. IWG's findings also reflect broader workplace priorities, 78 per cent of employees now say that a 'work from anywhere' policy matters when considering a new role, while 87 per cent believe remote work can boost productivity, reduce burnout, and improve work-life balance.

India hopes US ties will progress despite tariff tensions: MEA
NEW DELHI: India on Thursday hoped that its relationship with the US will continue to move forward based on mutual respect and shared interests. New Delhi's comments came amid escalating tensions between the two countries after President Donald Trump slapped 50 per cent tariff on Indian goods. "India and the United States share a comprehensive global strategic partnership anchored in shared interests, democratic values, and robust people-to-people ties," external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said. This partnership has weathered several transitions and challenges, he said. "We remain focused on the substantive agenda that our two countries have committed to and we hope that the relationship will continue to move forward based on mutual respect and shared interests," he said. Jaiswal was asked about the future of India-US ties in the wake of tariff tensions. The MEA spokesperson suggested that the defence ties between the two countries remained robust. "The India-US defence partnership, underpinned by foundational defence agreements, is an important pillar of the bilateral partnership," he said. This robust cooperation has strengthened across all domains, he noted.. "We are expecting a US Defence Policy Team to be in Delhi in mid-August. The 21st edition of the joint military exercise Yudh Abhyas is also expected to take place later this month in Alaska," Jaiswal said. "Both sides remain engaged to convene the 2+2 Intersessional meeting at the working-level towards the end of the month," he added.
