"Nirmala Sitharaman discusses Trump tariffs without reaching a conclusion, emphasizing the nation's interest - An interview on The Mega FM, Times Network Exclusive"
In an exclusive interview with Times Network, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman addressed the ongoing concerns regarding US tariffs. Since the meeting between Sitharaman and President Donald Trump on September 6, 2025, the Indian government has shown continuous worry over the additional 25% duty imposed on many Indian goods, effective August 27, 2025.
The tariffs have prompted India to take action, focusing on diversifying its export markets. The government aims to boost sectors such as textiles by targeting 40 key countries. Additionally, India has made prior tariff reductions on some imports from the US in an effort to ease tensions.
However, the tariffs remain in place as the US continues to pressure India for its ongoing oil imports from Russia. Sitharaman emphasised the nation's interest in relation to the US tariffs, but no decision or new facts were stated during the interview.
