HANDLE WITH CAUTION

Not many in India are concerned about Trump's disruptive presidency; with China, they prefer circumspection. The government's overall foreign policy gets a thumbs up, though not the ties with neighbours

HANDLE WITH CAUTION

No one was in any doubt that Donald Trump would keep his word at the start of his second presidency. What's taken everyone aback is the speed at which he is implementing his agenda. As the world adjusts to the new reality-of sweeping tariffs on imports, the US pulling out of WHO, USAID funds frozen and illegal immigrants deported PM Narendra Modi met the US president in Washington D.C. on February 12-13 to discuss trade, tariffs and the next steps in the US-India strategic partnership. Respondents in the India Today Mood of the Nation (MOTN) February 2025 poll are divided over what the Trump presidency will mean for India. While 30 per cent say it will be good for India, 31.7 per cent say it would have little impact. Around 16 per cent think it does no bode well for India.
