MEA On US Tariffs

"Discussions are ongoing between Indian and US trade teams for the expeditious conclusion of a mutually beneficial, multi-sectoral Bilateral Trade Agreement"

"India is carefully examining the implications of the various announcements made by the US

That is where india diplomacy is always Smart. We don't take any side openly

:kp
Told you before. We can't even stand up for ourselves and have to rely on others. Classic signs of a weak superpowaaa. Waise kagaz nahi dikhaye tune apne. Chullu bhar paani mein dub gaye kya andhbhakhto ki tarah? :yk :inti
 
India is only country that have good relationship with Russia - USA , Palastine - Israel .

This is called diplomacy but as I said you don't understand.

Are bewakoof Aadmi why we have to take side in the war between USA and China when we can benifit from it.

You should stick to Pakistan diplomacy.

You have been all about kagaz kagaz in your recent posts. So, how about showing your own kagaz here? Oh wait, what am I even asking? You get kidney stones jumping around just from @Major saying your real name. How will you ever show your kagaz? :yk :inti
He is one weird poster. He doesnt understand a topic and when you correct him, he starts acting ignorant and than tries to run away.

He thinks Balochistan is an area where Pakistanis cant even enter. I corrected him, than he said some areas of Balochistan, than i corrected him again and he ran off.

Its funny when a Pakistani like me who lives here is being told by a person not living here that this is whats happening....
 
Breaking news - USA raiser tarrif against China to 125%.

This happened after China retaliated with more tarrif against USA.

For other nations, tarrif paused for 90 days

Now come on China raise more

He posts like an ignorant 8-year-old. And when he runs out of arguments, he turns into a cheerleader, patting others on the back, just like Modi does when he doesn't understand a word. :inti
 
Opposition of India wanted India to take China route. Fortunately, they’re not in power.

If Modi government grabbed this golden opportunity , I'm forever vote for BJP from now onwards.

I like when he runs out of arguments, he does a google search looks for an article title that matches his claim and says look, it wasnt my opinion i was followng this article. And the whole context of that article is soemthing else.

I asked him to show his kagaz, and now he is already regretting bringing it up. The only kagaz he owns is his school leaving certificate from class 4. :yk :inti
 
So the 🍊 🤡 slaps on tariffs like he’s playing 4D chess, then comes crawling back trying to negotiate the mess he made.

Jon Stewart said it best, he’s like a dog that eats garbage off the street, pukes it all over your bed in the middle of the night, then as you’re cleaning it up, proudly scarfs down his own vomit just to get a pat on the head like, ‘Look at me, I fixed it’ nah bro, you did that.
 
USA's new tariff is a lot simpler now

For China - 125%
For rest of the world - 10%

China fell in the trap of Trump
It's one on one now

USA vs China

@Bhaijaan @Rajdeep @Champ_Pal @deltexas

Whats your opinion now ?

How's the Josh?

:kp
Thats what we wanted. All other countries will negotiate fast and there will be a mutually agreeable compromise.
No compromise with China. China is a global threat to USA and other and a regional threat in the subcontinent as well. Trump is full on pedal to the metal here. Let's see how strong China is. Moment of reckoning for them.

And the josh is high ! 😀🙂
 
The day trump solely Focus on China , china dream will be destroyed in few days.

No one can compete with america. There is reason why they are solo superpower of World.

:kp
Already told you .it was USA plan but China fall for it.

They never care about any other but plan was for the China alone

xi jinping or uske chamcho ne socha bhi ni hoga ki USA ka plan kya hai :kp
 
people with free time will go and protest and make tik tok videos to go viral. Nothing new here .

Now you see the power of protest? Tariffs paused for 90 days, and don't worry, the US-China tariff chess match won't drag on forever. China made it clear they are no pushover. Trump had to save face, so now it's negotiation time. And your josh looks 'thaka hua' now. :yk :inti

Dont care about other countries- that was never the focus. It's all about China. Was and is about China. Power of protest lol.. People can protest peacefully in the USA no issues.
And yeah want to see how strong China is. If China wins this- then congrats- a reality check for the USA and time to pull their socks up. Thats the thing. The USA is way resourceful and they will buck up and emerge stronger. Dont see China winning though. Lets see how much longer the Chinese bluster will last. If this weakens china considerably - so be it.

Chins is the only threat to USA and globally. Amd good that trump is handling it head on. 😀

Total genius move. I mean, who needs nuanced diplomacy or long term strategy when you can just wing it with some tariffs and tweets, right? I'm sure China was shaking in their boots or at least mildly amused while sipping tea and watching the chaos unfold.

He mishandled the situation and has now reverted to 10% tariffs for the next 90 days. Due to widespread protests and dissatisfaction, Trump being pro-market was compelled to act. Look at Dow Jones now. It has surged by 2,700 points, marking the biggest rally in the last five years. Don't worry about China. It is temporary too. :inti
 

Tariff Live Updates: Trump Backs Down on Reciprocal Tariffs for 90 Days​


Stocks immediately made steep gains after President Trump’s reversal. But he said China would not be included, raising tariffs on its exports to 125 percent after Beijing announced a new round of retaliation.

President Trump on Wednesday said he would pause his reciprocal tariffs for most countries for the next 90 days, backing down on his policy that had sent markets into a tailspin and threatened to upend global trade. But Mr. Trump said his break did not include China, announcing he would instead raise tariffs on its exports to 125 percent after Beijing announced a new round of retaliation.

Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary, said the tariff level would be brought down to a universal 10 percent — a significant reduction for many countries.

Yeah so lets wait and see right. Why do china want to negotiate and go to the WTO?? They can do what they want. Stop all business with USA.. go ahead. 😂

Very childish from Trump.

One day, he says tariffs. Next day, he pauses tariff. He then puts 125% tariff on China.

How can such an unstable person remain the president? :inti

This is not pak or ban where some protests will bring a government down lol. Trump is a live example of that when he lost in 2020.. again why does China want to do business with the rogue state USA?? They can stop all trade with USA right?? What's stopping them?🤔
 
Modi has once again proven himself to be the greatest of all time

#Legend 🐐


I think being the true global leader that Modi ji is, all the leaders of the world must have called him to help sort out this mess. Modiji must have called his good friend trump and ordered him to stop all this nonsense.

Long live Global Leader Modi ji.

That's what's trump doing with the 100% tariffs. Nothing's stopping him yes - as you can see he's doing what he wants with china. Like pak cricket- one minute up, the next minute down lol.. again why did China go to the WTO ? Thought they were a superpower and didn't care for the USA. 😁🤔
 
What’s the endgame, forcing China to buy more American products? Besides weapons of mass destruction and overpriced fighter jets, what does the US even produce that the average global consumer wants? Be honest, outside the US, no one’s lining up to drive American cars.

China is the world’s factory, and that’s not by accident. Other countries can try, but none of the West will take that crown. Why? High labor costs, regulations, and overhead make it a non starter. Even if the factories shift to Vietnam, what’s the plan? Slap tariffs on them too?

If the goal is to shut down China as the global factory, here’s an idea, compete. Innovate. Outperform. But don’t cry foul when you’re decades behind on efficiency.

China weathered COVID better than most, and it’s not going anywhere. Unless the entire world suddenly stops buying from China, which won’t happen, this panic is performative.

The “MIGA of MAGA” crowd seriously needs to take a breath.
 
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer reacted to today's market and tariff chaos, calling it "just a game for Donald Trump."

Schumer did not mention the new 10 per cent tariffs on Canada and Mexico, but said Trump does not appear to be thinking his actions through and that a tariff strategy against China, for example, would have to involve creating alliances.

"What Trump has done is he's created a situation where the whole world's against us and everyone's furious at America and we're alone," Schumer said.

"It is really real, very real for people's lives, people's livelihoods, people's retirements, people's income."

Schumer said he had no faith "that this has been thought out, planned out and will lead to any good result at all."

Just like this isn't about Pakistan or Bangladesh, it's not about India either. China is a real superpower not a fake one like India and they stood their ground. Trump, on the other hand, had to bow to global protests and save face by temporarily pausing tariffs. All that bravado you showed earlier in this thread has faded after the 90-day tariffs pause. Now, just like Trump, you are trying to save face by taking jabs at the Red Dragon, China. :yk :inti
 
Question was asked and you replied what?? So question again. Why do china want to negotiate and go to the WTO?? They can do what they want. Thought tgey were a superpower and didn't care for anyone
Negotiating Trump's hair or his tan?

Trump’s Net Worth Drops $500 Million As Tariffs Upend Global Economy

Tariffs seem like simple tools, but they often come with unexpected repercussions. Just ask the president, whose fortune dropped a half billion dollars in a few days.

Trump losing money for Americans? The MIGA cult cheers like it’s a noble sacrifice, meanwhile, the rest of us are stuck paying the bill for his ego trip. Call it patriotism if you want we call it economic self sabotage.

The real reason he will backtracked on tariffs. The AOC's of Democrats will likely win the next election.

Good.

Both Trump and Musk should face economic consequences for their senseless decisions.

I think people worldwide should boycott Trump's businesses.
 
This isn’t patriotism, it’s market manipulation, straight from the Oval Office. Trump’s playing a four year game of “get rich or get out,” and the middle class is footing the bill.

People are acting like these stunts will somehow make China buy more American cars, or that the world’s going to stop sourcing from the factory of the planet. Spoiler, they won’t.

This isn’t about fixing trade. It’s about transferring wealth upward, fast. Trump knows the clock’s ticking, and he’s making sure his circle cashes in before the next midterm elections.

And the MIGA wing of MAGA? Just background noise. Treat them like the nuance free distraction they are.
 
Never really understood the point of America taking on the whole world at the same time. The biggest issue is with China who they have a massive trade deficit with.

USA actually exports quite a bit even to eu. To China they don’t buy much. And at the same time China are USA’s main rival which threatens their status as the biggest economic power.

Always thought he’d use all the countries to gang up on China.

Seems to be doing this now somewhat. But still don’t get the logic of irritating all the other countries.

All seems a bit strange and I still don’t think these tariffs were a wise decision. USA is complaining not having trade in areas where they don’t have a comparative advantage. If a country evenly split their resources and tried to dominate every industry they would be worse off. Better to get great in a few and then mainly trade for the rest.

Think this will all end in a global recession personally. Which will probably take a year or so to recover. I agree with some I think that countries that are not USA or China could eventually take advantage while these two are fighting and come out stronger after this trade war finishes. Don’t see USA or China gaining though.
 

‘Kissing my a**’: Donald Trump says world leaders ‘dying’ for a deal amid tariffs​


Many new tariffs, announced by the Republican on April 2, took effect on Wednesday morning. He said that he would target the pharma sector next.​


US President Donald Trump on Tuesday claimed world leaders were "dying to make a deal" with him amid turmoil regarding sweeping tariff measures he announced earlier this month.


@deltexas So China is the only country that didn't kiss his 'tashreef'? :yk :inti
 
You can’t arm twist China into submission, it’s never worked, and it never will. What you can do is compete. But that takes effort, not empty theatrics.

Yes, China is the world’s factory. But it didn’t get there by accident. It got there by outworking, outscaling, and outmaneuvering. Just look at their EVs, they’re not just catching up, they’re setting the pace.

This whole charade? It’s not strategy, it’s performance. Create chaos, then pose as the hero who fixes it. It’s not economic policy.

And anyone still falling for it? You’re not watching the game. You’re the audience.
 
US stocks surge after White House pauses some tariffs for talks

US shares have rocketed after US President Donald Trump said he would suspend steep tariffs on goods from most countries, and instead impose a 10% import tax rate.

The White House said it was backing off on higher levies for trade partners that had agreed to negotiate, although Trump said he would raise tariffs on goods from China even further, to at least 125% "effective immediately".

The S&P 500 soared 9.5% in the biggest one-day rally since 2008, following days of turmoil sparked by the tariffs.

Trump's decision came less than 24 hours after the latest round of tariffs had come into force, hitting key trade partners, such as Vietnam, which saw its imports facing a new levy of 46%.



 
Trump open to talks with China. Looks like Trump can't handle the heat

Please quote the whole thing and not misleading statements. Here you go---


The reality is that the US is making nice – or at least nicer - with nations that held their retaliatory trade fire, letting the stock market bounce back and leaning into a trade war with China.

That will have global economic repercussions of its own, but it’s more in line with recent American foreign policy, including under Democratic President Joe Biden, that seeks to constrain Chinese ambitions

China is a threat that trump recognizes and he's acting accordingly because the EU and Islamic ummah have no spine whatsoever to handle China. Let China stop all its exports to USA.
 
Again no answer. Got it. Whataboutery? All you guys were saying China is a superpower and doesn't care for the USA. so why approach wto and complain???

Maybe the soy sauce at venue was delicious.

Actually you are doing whataboutery and I’m replying to that in similar manner.

You are asking why did China go to WTO if China didn’t care.
