'Trump Has Chased Away India', US Rep Calls Out President's Degrading Moves Against India | Modi

US Representative Sydney Kamlager-Dove accused President Donald Trump of sabotaging US-India relations amid his renewed push for tariffs on Indian rice imports, claiming it disrupts strategic ties during critical trade talks. In a December 11, 2025, statement, Kamlager-Dove highlighted Trump's aggressive stance as a threat to bilateral cooperation, echoing concerns from Indian officials over potential 25-60% duties that could spike US food prices and hit exporters like Louisiana rice farmers. The controversy unfolds as Under Secretary Allison Hooker visits New Delhi from December 7-11 to discuss economic partnerships, technology, space exploration, and American exports, with Foreign Affairs Expert Purnima Nath warning that tariffs could "bully" India into retaliatory measures, straining the $200 billion trade dynamic.

Executive Director Dhruva Jaishankar of the Observer Research Foundation America hinted that the talks focus on deepening strategic alignment despite tensions, covering commercial ties and joint ventures. Trump's rice tariff rhetoric, voiced during a December 8 event with farmers, aims to protect domestic agriculture but risks alienating India, a key Quad ally.
