Indian Envoy Meets US Lawmakers Amid Trade Tensions Over New Tariffs
Washington: Indian envoy Vinay Mohan Kwatra on Thursday met with prominent US lawmakers amid a strain in relations between Washington and New Delhi after President Donald Trump imposed 50 per cent tariffs on Indian goods. Kwatra met Representative Darrell Issa, Chairman of the House Judiciary GOP Subcommittee on Intellectual Property, AI and the Internet, and discussed key elements in the US-India ties, "including our partnership in energy security and mutually beneficial trade engagement". Kwatra, in a social media post, said he was grateful for Issa's steadfast support of the India-US ties as Vice-Chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee Majority. The Indian ambassador also had an "engaging conversation" with Representative Adam Smith, Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Democrats. Kwatra said he discussed India's perspectives on advancing mutual trade, energy and defence cooperation between the two countries. In a separate meeting with Senator John Cornyn, Co-Chair of the India Caucus in the US Senate, the envoy discussed issues of mutual interest and highlighted the importance of bilateral trade engagement. "We also discussed enhancing bilateral cooperation further in hydrocarbons, particularly between Texas and India," Kwatra posted on X. On Wednesday, the Indian envoy met Congressman Andy Barr, Chairman of the House Subcommittee on Financial Institutions and Monetary Policy of the Financial Services GOP, and discussed the possibilities of enhancing bilateral trade and investment partnership. Kwatra also thanked him for his leadership and consistent support for the relationship as Vice-Co-Chair of the India Caucus in the House of Representatives. In the last few days, the Indian ambassador to the US has held a series of meetings with US Congressmen Warren Davidson, Marc Veasey and Michael Baumgartner. The series of meetings comes amid a strain in ties between the US and India after Trump imposed 50 per cent tariffs on Indian goods, including a penalty of 25 per cent for New Delhi's purchases of Russian crude oil. India has called the tariffs "unjustified and unreasonable". India said that, like any major economy, it will take all necessary measures to safeguard its national interests and economic security.

'Perplexed' by extra 25% tariff as US told us to buy Russian oil: EAM Jaishankar
Photo/PTI Foreign minister S Jaishankar Thursday defended India's energy imports from Russia, saying the US (former Biden administration) wanted India to do "everything to stabilise the world energy markets, including buying oil from Russia". After meeting his Russian counterpart, Sergey Lavrov, in Moscow, Jaishankar said, "Incidentally, we also buy oil from America and that amount has been increasing. So, quite honestly, we are very perplexed at the logic of this argument that is referred to". He was replying to a question on President Trump slapping an additional 25% tariff on India, accusing it of profiteering from Russian oil and bankrolling Russia's war on Ukraine. Jaishankar pointed out that China, not India, is the biggest buyer of oil from Moscow. "We aren't a country that has (had) the biggest trade surge with Russia after 2022 (start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict)," he said. Jaishankar also called on President Vladimir Putin. "Appreciate his sharing perspectives on the global situation and recent developments on Ukraine," he said on X, adding preparations for the Modi-Putin summit towards the end of the year are well underway. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Telematics Will Shift Tech Into High Gear: 7 Projected Changes Over the Next 10 Years TechBullion Undo Jaishankar said he and Lavrov discussed possible outcomes from India-Russia annual summit that will have Putin visiting India towards the end of the year. 'We've looked at energy, including not just fossil fuel energy but also nuclear energy where we have a very strong history of cooperation with good discussions on fertilizer supply,' he said. Jaishankar and Lavrov discussed issues related to Ukraine war, West Asia and reform of global governance, while taking stock of bilateral relations. On terrorism, Jaishankar said he conveyed India's strong resolve to adopt a zero-tolerance policy against terrorism and its sovereign right to defend citizens against cross-border terrorism. He also raised the issue of Indians serving in the Russian Army, expressing hope that the Russian side would expeditiously resolve these matters. 'We believe relations between India and Russia have been among the steadiest of the major relationships in the world after the Second World War. Geo-political convergence, leadership contacts and popular sentiment remain its key drivers,' he said. 'Our defence and military-technical cooperation also remains robust. Russia supports India's Make in India goals, including through joint production and technology transfer,' Jaishankar said. On global and multilateral cooperation, both sides reaffirmed their shared commitment to reform of global governance. 'We underlined the imperative to expand and energise the UN Security Council to reflect contemporary realities. Our collaboration in G20, Brics and the SCO remains deep-rooted and forward looking,' Jaishankar said, adding on conflicts India's approach continues to emphasise dialogue and diplomacy as essential to resolving it.
