India suspends cotton import duty in signal to US, relief for garment industry
By Nikunj Ohri and Manoj Kumar NEW DELHI (Reuters) -India has suspended an 11% import duty on cotton until September 30, in a move seen as a signal to Washington that New Delhi is willing to address U.S. concerns on agricultural tariffs, while also easing pressure on its garment industry. The temporary suspension, announced late on Monday, could benefit U.S. cotton growers and provide relief to India's apparel sector, which faces tariffs of nearly 60% on shipments to the United States from later this month. A planned visit by U.S. trade negotiators to New Delhi from August 25-29 has been called off, delaying talks on a proposed bilateral trade agreement and dashing hopes of relief from an additional 25% U.S. tariff on Indian goods from August 27. President Donald Trump earlier this month announced an extra tariff on Indian goods as punishment for New Delhi's purchases of Russian oil, doubling the total duty to 50% on U.S. imports of Indian goods from later this month. Indian exports had previously faced levies of 0-5%, with duties on some textiles ranging between 9% and 13% before Trump raised tariffs in April. The United States is the biggest market for India's garment exporters, who say steep tariffs are leading to order cancellations and making them uncompetitive against Bangladesh and Vietnam, which have U.S. duties of 20%, and China at 30%. India's labour-intensive sectors, including textiles, footwear, engineering goods and shrimp, have been jolted by U.S. tariffs, and are now seeking alternative markets. "The largest beneficiary of the duty free import will be the U.S., the second largest supplier to India," said Ajay Srivastava, founder of Global Trade Research Initiative, a New Delhi-based think tank, adding India already allows duty-free cotton imports from Australia within a quota. Cotton imports more than doubled to $1.2 billion in the 2024/25 fiscal year to March, from $579 million a year earlier, led by $258 million from Australia, $234 million from the United States, $181 million from Brazil and $116 million from Egypt, Srivastava said. The sharp rise in U.S. tariffs comes just as India was emerging as a stronger alternative for American garment buyers, with Bangladesh facing political uncertainty and companies seeking to diversify supply chains beyond China. Industry bodies such as the Confederation of Indian Textile Industry (CITI) had urged the government to scrap the cotton import duty to help make the sector more competitive. Reuters earlier reported that some Indian exporters were scrambling to explore manufacturing options overseas to offset the impact of the higher tariffs. India's garment sector was already grappling with a labour crunch and limited production capacity. The prospect of exporters relocating production abroad poses a further challenge to the government's "Make in India" manufacturing drive. Industry officials now expect the government to extend duty-free cotton imports beyond September.

White House launches official TikTok account: 'America we are BACK!'
WASHINGTON - The White House launched an official TikTok account on Aug. 19, taking advantage of the short video app's more than 170 million U.S. users to spread the messages of President Donald Trump. Trump has a soft spot for the popular app, crediting it with helping him gain support among young voters when he defeated Democrat Kamala Harris in the November 2024 presidential election. Lawmakers in Washington worry, however, that its U.S. user data could fall into the hands of China's government. Trump has been working on a deal for U.S. investors to buy the app from TikTok's Chinese parent, ByteDance. Past intelligence assessments have said the app's owners are beholden to the Chinese government and that it could be used to influence Americans. The new account, @whitehouse, went live on Aug. 19 with an initial video showing footage of Trump as he declares: "I am your voice." "America we are BACK! What's up TikTok?" the caption read. The TikTok account Trump used for his presidential campaign last year, @realdonaldtrump, has more than 15 million followers. The Republican president also relies heavily on his Truth Social account to deliver his message and posts occasionally on his X account. "The Trump administration is committed to communicating the historic successes President Trump has delivered to the American people with as many audiences and platforms as possible," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said. "President Trump's message dominated TikTok during his presidential campaign, and we're excited to build upon those successes and communicate in a way no other administration has before," she said. A 2024 law required TikTok to stop operating by Jan. 19 of this year unless ByteDance had completed divesting the app's U.S. assets or demonstrated significant progress toward a sale. Trump opted not to enforce the law after he began his second term as president on Jan. 20. He first extended the deadline to early April, then to June 19, and then again to Sept. 17. Extensions to the deadline have drawn criticism from some lawmakers, who argue the Trump administration is flouting the law and ignoring national security concerns related to Chinese control over TikTok.
