Trump's petty revenge is biting him in the ass (India) [View all]

[Pototan]

I posted about 5 days ago that the 50% tariff on India has little to nothing to do with its purchasing of Russian oil and gas. It has more to do with Trump's anger over India not going along with his bullshit story of ending the India-Pakistan conflict.

This article today supports that argument.

Many in Delhi believe the true trigger was political. Mr. Trump has repeatedly claimed it was his diplomacy alone that ended a four-day military clash between India and Pakistan in May, a boast he has made more than 40 times. Pakistan credited him — even nominating him for a Nobel Peace Prize. India pointedly did not.
