US President Donald Trump announced on Tuesday that the United States and India are resuming negotiations aimed at resolving long-standing trade disputes between the two countries.

In a post on his social media platform Truth Social, Trump stated, “I am pleased to announce that India and the United States of America are continuing negotiations to address the Trade Barriers between our two Nations. I look forward to speaking with my very good friend, Prime Minister Modi, in the upcoming weeks. I feel certain that there will be no difficulty in coming to a successful conclusion for both of our Great Countries!"

While neither the White House nor the Indian Ministry of Commerce has officially confirmed a new round of talks, Trump’s statement comes amid heightened geopolitical and economic coordination between Washington and New Delhi, particularly in areas such as defence, technology, and supply chains.
