Trumps Verdoppelung der Zölle trifft Indien, schadet die Beziehung zu uns

SS: U.S. President [Donald Trump’s](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/donald-trump/) doubling of [tariffs](https://www.reuters.com/business/tariffs/) on imports from India to as much as 50% took effect as scheduled on Wednesday, delivering a serious blow to ties between the two countries that became strategic partners after the turn of this century.A punitive 25% tariff imposed due to India’s purchases of Russian oil adds to Trump’s prior 25% tariff on many imports from the South Asian nation. It takes total duties to as high as 50% for goods such as garments, gems and jewellery, footwear, sporting goods, furniture and chemicals – among the highest imposed by the U.S. and on par with Brazil and China.
