Increasing tilt of India ‘s foreign policy towards US through arrangements like QUAD is short sighted and dangerous
CPI strongly condemned increase in 50% tarrif on Indian products

The open threat of the United States president to India and therefore to his old friend is something never expected – before. The way he is repeatedly writing on X about imposing additional tariffs in future after already imposing 25% tariffs,and now 50% feeling cheated that India is buying crude from Russia, the number one enemy of the United States it unambiguously show that all the previous compliments and commitments by Donald Trump to prime minister Narendra Modi of he and US being India’s true friends were all false notions and farce commitments.
It seems that Donald Trump is particularly infuriated after the India didn’t accept his twenty nine repeated statements on various occasions regarding bringing out peace between India and Pakistan.
The way the US president is trying to deal with his counterparts in a threatening way with other countries and its heads it seems that his diplomacy is completely farce and proving to be a failure.
He brief statements on X about India in a threatening posture gives an impression as if he is not a US president but some head of the state irresponsible and without credibility.
His latest tweet threatening India of buying oil from Russia at cheaper rates and then selling it in open market to earn big profits is really a childish statement further threatening India with more tariffs saying that the Russian war Machine is killing Ukrainians on a massive scale.
Donald Trump wrote on X : India is not only buying massive amounts of Russian oil, they are then, for much of the oil purchased, selling it on the Open market to earn big profits. They don’t care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian War Machine. Because of this, I will be substantially raising the Tarrif paid by India to the United States. Thank you for your attention to this matter wrote the US president on X.
He is the same president who had during his earlier tenure stopped the massive US military to Pakistan unambiguously accusing it of misusing that aid for financing the terrorists and terror outfits in Pakistan.
However, during the sudden U turn today Pakistan is the best trusted friend of Donald Trump who not only equates incompetent and tiny Pakistan with India but also invites the Field Marshal and chief of the Army of enemy Pakistan General Munir as the state Chief Guest in the US Army function and dines with him. He is the same Pakistan Army general whose obnoxious statements allegedly led to brutal killings of innocent tourists in Pahalgam.
However, we are mum on this changed attitude of the US president ?
Meanwhile the Communist Party of India has strongly criticized the US president over his threatening posture against India.
The Communist Party of India has strongly condemned the bullying tactics of the US president Donald Trump by imposing a fifty percent tariff on India on account of India buying oil from Russia.
In a press statement issued here today the Communist Party of India said that this blatant weaponisation of trade relations is an attack on India’s autonomy and a crude attempt to enforce an exclusionary and decadent US led world order.
Such actions are aimed at coercing independent nations into submission and undermining their right to pursue sovereign foreign and economic policies.
Terming the action of Donald Trump as highly erratic and hostile the CPI statement said that global policy making cannot be allowed to bend to the whims of any one country’s leadership, particularly one as erratic and hostile as Donald Trump.
These latest developments reflect the deep unease in US policy circles about the irreversible rise of multipolarity and the growing confidence of emerging economies. Instead of accepting this reality , the United States continues to resort to threats and trade aggression to maintain its global hegemony.
The CPI statement concluded by saying that India must firmly assert its strategic hegemony and reject any external dictates on whom it engaged economically and politically.
Terming India’s twist in foreign policy towards US as harmful the CPI leadership said that the increasing tilt of India ‘s foreign policy towards US through arrangements like QUAD is short sighted and dangerous advising Indian ruling political dispensation that it must reorient its priorities towards greater South South solidarity, deepen cooperation with emerging economies and contribute actively to building a democratic and multi polar global order said the CPI statement.
