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.

Sharp escalation in U.S. tariffs will hit exporters in Karnataka, especially MSMEs: FKCCI

The Federation of Karnataka Chambers of Commerce & Industry (FKCCI) on Thursday expressed serious concern over the decision by the United States to increase tariffs on certain imports from 25% to 50%. 'This sharp escalation in tariffs will significantly affect our exporters, particularly MSMEs, which form the backbone of India's industrial and manufacturing sectors,' Uma Reddy, senior vice-president, FKCCI, told The Hindu. With tighter margins and less room to absorb cost shocks, MSMEs were especially vulnerable to such policy shifts, she said, adding, 'the increased duties would make Indian goods less competitive in the U.S. market, potentially leading to a decline in export orders, disruptions in cash flow and a slowdown in production.'' However, Ms. Reddy said that the FKCCI also would like to consider this as a turning point for the Indian industry. Time to recalibrate 'Tariff hikes, while challenging, push our MSMEs to recalibrate and reduce dependency on a single market. We encourage our members to explore newer geographies, enhance product innovation, and invest in quality and compliance to meet diverse global standards,' she urged exporting MSMEs. According to Ms. Reddy, this situation brought out by Mr. Trump was an opportunity for India to assert its position as a reliable, agile, and value-driven manufacturing hub. 'We are confident that the Centre will engage proactively and negotiate with the U.S. administration in the days to come, before the new tariffs are implemented. A strategic dialogue at the right time can help safeguard Indian business interests, particularly for MSMEs,'' she said. Govt. help sought She also urged the government to support the exporters community through policy intervention, export incentives, and improved logistics and finance access. 'As an apex chamber committed to inclusive growth, FKCCI stood firm with MSMEs in Karnataka in navigating this evolving global trade landscape,' Ms. Reddy added.
