He also tagged a report quoting Trump that India has offered “zero tariffs” on several American goods as part of its trade deal with the United States.
“India is one of the highest tariff nations in the world. It is very hard to sell into India. They have offered us a deal where basically they are willing to — literally — they charge us no tariff. We go from the highest tariff — you could not do business in India, we are not even in the top 30 in India because the tariff is so high — to a point where they have actually told us that there will be no tariff. Would you say that is the difference? They were the highest, and now they are saying no tariff,” Trump said in Doha.
