Question: President Trump once again said in his speech that he stopped seven wars in the last seven months, including India and Pakistan.

Question: The US alleges that India and China are indirectly funding the Russia-Ukraine war by purchasing oil from Russia. But America imposed 50 percent tariff on India, while why not China?

answer: America wants to end this war. President Trump has said that he will also talk to European countries on this subject, so that Russia’s economic condition can be weakened.

Question: Is not an anti-India step to increase the fee on H-1B visa? Can it be called ‘Anti-India’ move?

answer: No, this is a misconception. This is a new policy, which aims to prevent misuse of this program. So that American companies cannot misuse it. In the areas where American citizens are working, they do not have to face unfair competition from low -cost workers coming from outside countries. For this reason, this policy has been implemented.

Question: US Secretary of State and Indian Foreign Minister S.K. In the conversation between Jaishankar, was the Chabahar port discussed?

Question: US Secretary of State and S.K. The quad was also mentioned in the conversation between Jaishankar. Will President Trump come to India?

Question: 50 percent tariff was imposed on India. The Indian Commerce Minister recently met his American counterpart. Do you think the final trade deal will be signed soon?

answer: We hope that there will be a justified and balanced business agreement. Recently, delegations of the two countries have seen it from a positive attitude. As long as the talks continue, I cannot comment on this subject.

Question: Four of the G-7 countries have recognized Palestine. Will this stop the war, because European countries are supporting Palestine?
