The United States has officially issued a public notice announcing an additional 25% tariff on goods imported from India. The notice, released by the Department of Homeland Security through the US Customs and Border Protection, states that the new tariff will come into effect from 12:01 AM (EST) on August 27.
This additional tariff implements the executive order signed by US President Donald Trump on August 6. President Trump had announced the extra tariff as a penalty against India for purchasing Russian oil.
According to the notice, the new tariff is being imposed “in response to threats from the Government of the Russian Federation against the United States,” and India is being targeted as part of this policy. This suggests that the White House is working on a pressure strategy ahead of a peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine.
The notice from the Department of Homeland Security, issued via the US Customs and Border Protection, clarified that the tariff implements President Trump’s executive order signed on August 6.
