US President Donald Trump's 50% tariffs on Indian exports started on 27 Aug 2025. The tariffs mainly affect India's export of Russian oil and other goods worth about $48 billion. Fijian Prime Minister Sitiveni Rabuka, visiting Delhi, said these tariffs show some tension between India and the US. He told PM Narendra Modi that despite these challenges, India can handle the situation. Rabuka also spoke about his 'Ocean of Peace' vision for the Pacific region. India’s exports to the US will face higher costs, making them less competitive compared to other Asian countries. The Indian government is working on ways to reduce the impact of these tariffs.
