According to his ‘America First’ policy, US President Donald Trump announced a recipe tariff on his partners and other countries from 4 April, which impose high duty on imports from the US. He said in a statement on March 19, “My relations with India are very good, I hope that he will gradually reduce his tariff on American imports.” But he also said that India has imposed a lot of tariffs on America, so it is maintained on its announcement of putting a reciperoot tariff. Reciperook tariff means that the more tax on American imports, the US will also impose the same tax on Indian imports.
