Trump hits India with extra 25% tariff for buying Russian oil
US President Donald Trump imposes a 25% tariff on India for buying Russian oil, bringing the total tariff on Indian imports to the US to 50%. The executive order will go into effect 21 days from the date it was issued. Trump cited India's seeming indifference to the conflict in Ukraine as a reason for the increased levies.
