Trump -Modi Rift bedroht die globale Stabilität mit China – Nikkei Asien

Here’s summary:

Trump–Modi ties have soured, threatening U.S.–India strategic cooperation built over two decades to counter China.

Trigger: Trump doubled tariffs on Indian goods (25% to 50%) over Russian oil imports; Modi refused his calls.

Disputes include:

U.S. seen as less confrontational toward China, easing some controls and blocking Taiwan stopover.

Trump’s claims of mediating India-Pakistan tensions and inviting Pakistan’s army chief angered New Delhi.

Modi to visit China (SCO summit) while U.S.–India tensions rise.

Quad summit in India later this year could be key to repair ties, but trust damage is significant.

A breakdown could weaken the Quad and benefit China and Russia.
