On this Special Report, Rajdeep Sardesai examines the implications of the newly announced India-US trade agreement following a period of high tariffs and diplomatic tension. The deal reduces reciprocal tariffs on Indian goods from 50% to 18%, prompting debate over whether the outcome represents a strategic win or a one-sided arrangement. The program features insights from former diplomat Syed Akbaruddin, USIBC President Atul Keshap, and experts Lisa Curtis and Derek Grossman. Key discussion points include the lack of clarity regarding agricultural market access, the future of Russian oil imports, and the timeline for India’s $500 billion procurement of American goods. Sardesai highlights Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s commitment to protecting Indian farmers despite US pressure. Analysts explore if this agreement provides the predictability required for cooperation in semiconductors, AI, and defense, or if it serves as a temporary truce within a transactional relationship. The panel evaluates the psychological impact on the business community and the strategic space gained during the Trump administration.
