India has imposed a 100 per cent tariff on agricultural products from the United States, the White House noted on Tuesday (IST). The remarks from White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt come a day before US President Donald Trump’s proposed reciprocal tariffs come into effect. Leavitt stated that the high levies charged by other countries make it “virtually impossible” for US products to be exported to those markets. She added: “Unfortunately, these countries have been ripping off our nation for far too long, and they’ve made, I think, their disdain for the American workers quite clear.”
