India must prioritize self-reliance amid uncertain U.S. trade deals, says expert

The recent implementation of tariffs on Chinese goods by U.S. President Donald Trump serves as a reminder that no trade deal with the United States is ever truly secure. In light of this uncertainty, it is imperative for India to prioritize self-reliance and strengthen its own economic interests. By focusing on self-sufficiency, India can insulate itself from the unpredictable nature of global trade relations. Additionally, India should seek to maintain a balance in its trade relationships with both Western economies and other emerging markets like BRICS nations.
