There have been more than mere blips of bonhomie between the US and India twice in the past week. Yet, top American officials continue with mixed signals on tariffs and trade talks, expressing hope for a deal with a familiar caveat — that India must stop buying oil from Russia.
Sergio Gor, President Donald Trump’s pick for the next envoy to India, said on Thursday that Washington and Delhi are “not that far apart on a deal on these tariffs”.
