COINOTAG News, August 16th – Recent developments indicate that the United States has implemented additional tariffs on Indian imports, specifically targeting goods linked to the country’s procurement of Russian oil. In a related move, the U.S. government has issued warnings about potential secondary tariffs on Chinese products, stemming from similar purchases of Russian crude. As reported by Reuters on August 16th, President Trump made a statement following his meeting with Russian President Putin on August 15th, clarifying that the U.S. currently has no intentions of imposing tariffs on China over its oil dealings with Russia. During an interview with Fox News post-meeting in Alaska, Trump expressed that while tariffs on China may need reevaluation within two to three weeks, no immediate actions would be taken. This cautious approach emphasizes the complex geopolitical dynamics surrounding oil imports and international trade.
