‘Extremely unfortunate': India reacts strongly to Donald Trump's 25% additional tariff for buying Russian oil; ‘will take all actions necessary…'
Donald Trump doubles tariffs on India to 50% India has responded strongly to US President Donald Trump's move on Wednesday to impose an additional 25% tariff on India for its crude oil procurement from Russia. The ministry of external affairs in a statement called the US move 'unfortunate' and reiterated that stand that India would continue to protect its national interests. In a strongly worded statement, the MEA said, "..it is extremely unfortunate that the US should choose to impose additional tariffs on India for actions that several other countries are also taking in their own national interest." Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday announcing that India will face an extra 25% tariff over and above the 25% rate announced last week. While the 25% rate is effective from August 7, 2025, the newly announced additional tariff will come into place 21 days from now. Experts are of the view that this move by the Donald Trump administration leaves room for trade deal negotiations and talks. Also Check | Donald Trump doubles India tariff rate to 50%: Live Updates Under the revised tariff structure, India and Brazil will face the highest tariff rate of 50% in the US market. This places India at a competitive disadvantage compared to other nations with lower duty rates: Myanmar (40%), Thailand and Cambodia (36%), Bangladesh (35%, Indonesia (32%), China and Sri Lanka (30%), Malaysia (25%), Philippines and Vietnam (20%). by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Best Method for a Flat Stomach After 50 (It's Genius!) Lulutox Undo India reacts strongly to Trump's 25% additional tariff Below is the full text of the ministry of external affairs statement on the latest additional 25% tariff on India for buying Russia crude oil: 1. The United States has in recent days targeted India's oil imports from Russia. 2. We have already made clear our position on these issues, including the fact that our imports are based on market factors and done with the overall objective of ensuring the energy security of 1.4 billion people of India. 3. It is therefore extremely unfortunate that the US should choose to impose additional tariffs on India for actions that several other countries are also taking in their own national interest. 4. We reiterate that these actions are unfair, unjustified and unreasonable. 5. India will take all actions necessary to protect its national interests. Trump's pressure tactics on India Trump issued an executive order titled "Addressing Threats to the US by the Government of the Russian Federation" that implements additional customs duty. Following this directive, Indian imports to the US, except for a limited exclusion list, will face a combined tariff of 50%. "The ad valorem duty be in addition to any other duties, fees, taxes, exactions, and charges applicable to such imports...," the order said. The base tariff will take effect from August 7, whilst the supplementary charge will be implemented after 21 days, on August 27. "I find that the Government of India is currently directly or indirectly importing Russian Federation oil. Accordingly, and as consistent with applicable law, articles of India imported into the customs territory of the United States shall be subject to an additional ad valorem rate of duty of 25 percent," it said.

Donald Trump administration has earlier accused India of helping 'finance' Russia's war against Ukraine through its oil trade. Trump government officials have said that India's procurement of Russian crude oil has emerged as an 'irritant' in the ties between India and the US. India imports approximately 88% of its crude oil requirements from international markets, which is subsequently processed into fuels such as petrol and diesel. Prior to 2021, Russian oil constituted a mere 0.2% of India's total crude imports. Following Russia-Ukraine war, Indian refineries took advantage of discounted Russian oil, which was available at lower prices due to western sanctions. Currently, Russia has emerged as India's foremost oil supplier. During July, India's daily oil imports reached approximately 5 million barrels, with Russian supplies accounting for 1.6 million barrels.

Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda 's romantic film 'Saiyaara', directed by Mohit Suri , has enjoyed a blockbuster run at the Indian box office. After crossing the huge milestone of Rs 300 crore, the film is now seeing a drop in its third week.

According to early estimates from Sacnilk, the film collected Rs 2.50 crore on its third Tuesday. Though this was slightly more than what it earned on Day 18 (Rs 2.35 crore), the signs of a fall in collections are clearly visible. After such a strong performance, this slowdown marks the start of a natural decline. Occupancy day 19 Even though the collections dipped, 'Saiyaara' still recorded a fairly decent Hindi occupancy of 23.30% on Tuesday, 5 August 2025. The audience turnout increased steadily throughout the day, starting with 13.45% during the morning shows, rising to 22.45% in the afternoon, followed by 25.34% in the evening, and peaking at 31.96% during the night shows.

From its first day, 'Saiyaara' looked like a winner and it certainly delivered. New films bring fresh challenge As 'Saiyaara' enters its third week, fresh releases have begun to take away some of its shine. 'Mahavtar Narsimha', which released on 25 July, quickly picked up thanks to positive word of mouth. On Friday, 1 August, two more big films hit the cinemas, adding to the growing competition at the box office. 'Son Of Sardaar 2', starring Ajay Devgn and Mrunal Thakur , collected Rs 2.50 crore on Tuesday, taking its total to Rs 29.60 crore. Meanwhile, 'Dhadak 2', featuring Siddhant Chaturvedi and Triptii Dimri, earned Rs 1.60 crore on the same day, bringing its overall collection to Rs 14.35 crore. What's next for 'Saiyaara'? While 'Saiyaara' has had a record-breaking run, its performance in the coming days will decide how much higher it can go. With a total of over Rs 304 crore, it has already achieved something massive. The film now has limited time before the release of 'War 2' on 14 August, which stars Hrithik Roshan , Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani . That film has high expectations at the box office, so 'Saiyaara' will need to make the most of the days it has left.

‘Wednesday' star Jenna Ortega shares her perspective on the digital age: 'Young people are struggling…'
'Wednesday' actress Jenna Ortega recently opened up about her thoughts on the ongoing digital age. She called it "isolating" and even mentioned how times used to be better. Jenna Ortega talks about the 'isolating' digital age and more According to her BBC interview, the 22-year-old actress believes that the current age of digital and online advancements has made it much harder for people 'to find a sense of self. In her words, rather than reaching out to the people around them, individuals are 'interacting and finding their community online, which can be very isolating.' While detailing this matter, she also mentioned how this exposes people to a lot more opinions and voices than any one person would normally be exposed to. 'So I think it's harder to find a sense of self. Young people are struggling to find: 'What makes my voice stand out? What is it about me in this world and this society today that gives me a sense of purpose or control or authority?' she added along. What message does 'Wednesday' have for the people of this generation? Ortega also went forth and shared that her spin-off show shows a space where people are allowed to be who they are and 'place priority where it matters, and that's your family, that's who's in front of you, your special interests, that's your strength and your courage and your confidence in your voice.' She added that this is the kind of idea that people need to observe now, 'now more than ever,' while also saying that sheep mentality has also managed to become extremely common in today's day and age. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Simple Morning Habit for a Flatter Belly After 50!
