NSA Ajit Doval meets Putin in Moscow day after Trump slaps tariffs
National Security Adviser Ajit Doval met Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin during his visit to Moscow for bilateral talks focused on security, economic, and energy cooperation. NSA Ajit Doval meets Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin.(Kremlin ) The meeting came a day after US President Donald Trump announced steep new tariffs on Indian imports in response to New Delhi's continued purchases of Russian crude oil. Trump, on Wednesday, signed an executive order imposing an additional 25 per cent tariff on Indian goods, effectively doubling the total tariff burden to 50 per cent. India has defended its energy trade with Russia, maintaining that its oil imports are 'driven by national interest and market dynamics.' In a video released by Russian state media outlet Sputnik News, Doval described India's relationship with Russia as 'very special,' underlining the depth of long-standing strategic ties between the two countries. 'We have got a very special relationship, long relationship and we highly value our strategic partnership. We have had high-level engagements and these have contributed very substantially,' Doval said. He also welcomed the announcement of an upcoming state visit by President Putin to India, saying summit meetings have historically marked key moments in bilateral ties. 'We are very excited and delighted to learn about the visit of His Excellency, the President of Russia, President Putin, to India. I think that the dates are almost finalized now. The more important thing is that the summit meetings have always been a watershed point,' Doval added. According to sources cited by news agency ANI, while Doval confirmed that plans for the Russian president's visit are underway, no specific dates were finalised during his engagements in Moscow. India and Russia continue to expand their defence cooperation. In 2018, India signed a $5.43 billion deal for five squadrons of the S-400 Triumf air defence missile system from Russia. So far, three squadrons have been delivered.

FTCCI wants TG govt. to shield exporters, says State support vital
Trade and industry body Federation of Telangana Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FTCCI) has appealed to the Telangana government to support and protect exporters amid global trade challenges. The plea came in the backdrop of the tariff and additional tariff announcement of the U.S. President Donald Trump on imports from India. State-level interventions are equally vital for the exporters, FTCCI President R. Ravi Kumar said in a representation to Industries and IT Minister D. Sridhar Babu. Four-pronged support Exemption of trade license fee for manufacturing industries; reduction in the fees for commercial establishments by reverting to earlier cap of ₹7,000 per annum, in line with practices in other States; expedited release of pending incentives to MSMEs and large industries; and subsidies on logistics costs to make Telangana's exports more competitive globally are measures FTCCI sought from the State government. Mr. Ravi Kumar expressed concern over potential escalation of tariffs on Indian exports by the U.S. and how the move could significantly impact Telangana's export-driven sectors such as chemicals, agricultural products, including rice, engineering goods, textiles, and gems and jewellery. These industries contribute substantially to the State's GSDP, employment generation, and government revenues, he said. The threat of higher tariffs and penalties, coupled with weakening capital inflows, poses a grave challenge to exporters and MSMEs operating in the State. While the Centre is actively exploring measures to mitigate the impact—such as recalibrating bank risk models to lower borrowing costs, reducing testing and certification fees, and launching an Export Promotion Mission, State-level interventions are equally vital. 'Shielding exporters from external shocks is essential not just for protecting existing businesses but also for sustaining employment and economic growth in Telangana,' he said.
