바카라Good to speak with @SecRubio today. Exchanged perspectives on the Indo-Pacific, the Indian Sub-continent, Europe, Middle East/West Asia and the Caribbean. Agreed on the importance of the early conclusion of the Bilateral Trade Agreement. Look forward to remaining in touch,바카라 Jaishankar said.
After weeks of speculation, U.S. President Donald Trump made good on his tariff threats in early April by announcing a 10% baseline tax on imports from all countries, along with higher tariffs on several nations with trade surpluses with the United States.
At a recent event at NATO headquarters in Brussels, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio called on "wealthy countries" like India and China to contribute more significantly to humanitarian efforts, particularly in the wake of recent earthquakes in Myanmar. He urged for broader international participation in addressing humanitarian crises.
Clarifying the U.S. stance on humanitarian aid, Rubio remarked, 바카라We are not the government of the world. We바카라ll provide assistance, but we also have other needs to balance.바카라 Addressing questions about the reduced footprint of USAID, he explained that operational challenges in Myanmar are due to the country바카라s military leadership. "It바카라s not the easiest place to work. They don바카라t necessarily allow us to operate there the way we would like to," he added.
