India vs US: Trade War Ki Shuruaat?
Namaste dosto! Aaj hum baat karenge ek bade trade issue ke baare mein jo India aur US ke beech mein garma garmi la raha hai. Hindustan Times ke ek recent article ke mutabiq, India ab US ke khilaaf retaliatory tariffs lagane ka soch raha hai kyunki US ne World Trade Organization (WTO) ke notice ko reject kar diya hai. Ye kya hai puri kahani? Chalo, detail mein samajhte hain!
Kya Hai Issue?
Baat yeh hai ki US ne February 10, 2025 ko steel aur aluminium imports pe 25% aur 10% ka tariff laga diya tha, jise unhone “national security” ka reason diya. India ne iske khilaaf WTO mein ek notice diya tha, jisme unhone kaha ki yeh tariffs WTO rules ke against hain aur isse Indian exports ko bada nuksan ho raha hai. Lekin US ne May 22 ko is notice ko reject kar diya, bolke ki yeh tariffs “safeguard measures” nahi hain, toh ispe koi baat nahi hogi.
India ne WTO ko bataya tha ki US ke yeh tariffs $7.6 billion ke Indian imports ko affect kar rahe hain. Ab India US ke 29 products, jaise almonds, walnuts, apples, aur steel items pe retaliatory duties lagane ka plan bana raha hai.
India Ka Plan Kya Hai?
India ab US ke imports pe concessions suspend karne ki taiyaari kar raha hai. Matlab, US se aane wale kuch products, jaise almonds aur walnuts, pe higher customs duties lag sakte hain. Yeh ek tarah ka jawabi hamla hai, jisse India US ko dikhana chahta hai ki hum bhi apne interests ki raksha kar sakte hain.
Trade experts ke mutabiq, yeh ek naye trade rift ki shuruaat ho sakti hai. India aur US ke beech pehle bhi 2018-2019 mein aise disputes ho chuke hain, jab US ne steel aur aluminium pe duties lagaye the aur India ne 28 US products pe retaliatory tariffs lagaye the.

Kya Hai Background?
Iske pehle bhi India aur US ke beech trade ko lekar tensions rahi hain. 2018 mein Joe Biden administration ne steel pe 25% aur aluminium pe 10% tariffs lagaye the, jiska India ne jawab diya tha by imposing duties on US products like almonds. 2023 mein ek agreement hua tha jisme US ne India ke steel aur aluminium ko kuch relief diya tha, aur India ne bhi US products pe extra duties hata diye the. Lekin ab lagta hai ek naya chapter shuru ho raha hai.

Interesting baat yeh hai ki ek US trade court ne May 28, 2025 ko Trump ke “Liberation Day” tariffs ko illegal declare kiya tha under International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Isse India ko thodi moral support mili hai, lekin US abhi bhi WTO ke rules ke saath apni baat manvane ki koshish mein hai.
Aage Kya Hoga?
Abhi yeh dekhna baaki hai ki India apne retaliatory tariffs ke plan ko aage badhata hai ya diplomatic talks ke through koi solution nikalta hai. Trade experts bol rahe hain ki WTO mein ab appellate body effectively kaam nahi kar raha, toh yeh disputes zyada serious nahi hote, lekin India apna stand clear rakhna chahta hai.

Ek taraf India-US trade deal ki baatein chal rahi hain, aur doosri taraf yeh tariff ka tension. Yeh ek delicate balance hai, aur dono countries ke geopolitical aur economic dynamics isse aur complicated kar rahe hain.
