US ‘very disappointed’ with ‘mother of all deals’, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent asks ‘why did Europe ignore US tariffs on India?’ - We all know Why
Bessent said Europe’s decision left him disappointed, especially as the war in Ukraine continues. “They should do what’s best for themselves, but I will tell you, I found, I find the Europeans very disappointing.”
Why Europe didn’t back US tariffs on India? The agreement is aimed at boosting trade between the two sides and cutting Europe’s dependence on the United States at a time when global trade tensions are rising.
But Bessent argued the deal also explains why Europe refused to back Washington’s decision last year to impose higher tariffs on India. “The Europeans were unwilling to join us, and it turns out, because they wanted to do this trade deal. So every time you hear a European talk about the importance of the Ukrainian people, remember that they put trade ahead of the Ukrainian people. - Bessent
Accusations of indirectly funding the war - “The Russian oil goes into India, the refined products come out, and the Europeans buy the refined products. They are financing the war against themselves.”
As of now, EU does trade with Russia, North Korea and China does trade with Russia. But on top of everything, US itself is buying uranium, fertilisers and other critical items from Russia. As per many geopolitical experts, this isn’t about Ukraine war, it’s about India stand about nominating Trump for Nobel.
Who got benefitted from Trump Tariffs - China, Indian PM visited China, EU visited China, Canadian PM open doors for China and now UK PM gave his share of wisdom and ease trade deals with China.
