US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday (local time) that he would see what happens in the next time and he never said percentage.
The comment was made during a press conference at the White House, which was originally called to discuss the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics. When asked about the implementation of 100% tariffs on Russian energy buying countries, Trump said, “I never said percentage, but we are doing a lot. We will see what happens in a very short period of the next time … We have a meeting with Russia tomorrow. We are going to see what happens …”
Meanwhile, former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley has excavated US President Donald Trump for his announcements about a lot of hiking tariffs on oil imports from Russia, stating that he had “passed” China and he had warned him against burning a relationship with a strong colleague like India.
Haley said in a post on X that China is an opponent of the United States and “Russian and Iranian oil number one buyer” has been given a 90-day tariff stagnation by the Trump administration.
He said, “India should not buy oil from Russia. But China, an anti-Russian and Iranian oil number one buyer got a 90-day tariff stagnation. Do not pass China and burn a relationship with a strong ally like India,” he said.
Haley was the last of Trump’s major rivals to get out of the Republican primary competition in the presidential candidate race last year.
Trump said on Tuesday that he would increase the tariffs on imports from India in the next 24 hours according to Reuters, according to Reuters, will increase the tariffs on imports from India at a very large extent “to a large extent”.
Trump told CNBC in an interview, “They are fueling the war machine, and if they are going to do so, I am not going to be happy,” Trump told CNBC in an interview, the Reuters.
According to the report, he said that the main sticking point with India was that its tariffs were very high, but did not provide a new tariff rate.
Trump said on Monday that the United States “will” increase the tariffs paid by India to a large extent “to purchase a huge amount of Russian oil on a large scale”, stating that most of the oil purchased from Moscow is being sold in the open market “for large profits”.
Trump was announced on his social media platform Truth Social, a few days after the announcement of 25 percent mutual tariff on India and an unspecified punishment for importing oil from Russia.
“India is not only buying Russian oil on a large scale, for most of the oil purchased oil, selling it on the open market for large profits. They do not care how many people are being killed by Russian war machines in Ukraine. Because of this, I will increase the tariffs paid by India to the USA to a great extent.
