Maybe they’ll sell to India: Trump strikes trade deal, oil partnership with Pak

Just hours after imposing a 25% tariff and additional penalties on Indian imports, US President Donald Trump announced a new trade agreement with Pakistan. The deal includes a joint effort to explore and develop Pakistan’s oil reserves, a move Trump described as a potential future source of oil for India.

In a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump revealed that Washington and Islamabad are in the early stages of selecting an energy company to spearhead the initiative.

“We have just concluded a Deal with the Country of Pakistan, whereby Pakistan and the United States will work together on developing their massive Oil Reserves. We are in the process of choosing the Oil Company that will lead this Partnership. Who knows, maybe they’ll be selling Oil to India someday!" he wrote.
