Deepak Shenoy Slams Trump's Trade Tirade Against India, Sets the Record Straight — Here's How
Capitalmind CEO Deepak Shenoy highlighted a US trade surplus in services with India, disputing claims of a one-sided trade deficit amid ongoing tariff disputes.
- On Tuesday, Capitalmind founder Deepak Shenoy rebuked US President Donald Trump's claim of a 'one-sided disaster' in US-India trade, calling it factually wrong and reckless, sparking sharp online reactions.
- US President Donald Trump escalated criticism of India's trade policies on Tuesday, following Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meetings with Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin and U.S. tariff hikes to 50%.
- Shenoy pointed out that the US runs a trade surplus with India in services, flagged US-origin frictions like textile tariffs and FDA barriers, and noted India's defense hesitance due to perceived US support for Pakistan.
- The move has prompted criticism in Washington, D.C., with House Democrats on the House Foreign Affairs Committee accusing Trump of harming Americans as trade talks that began in April have stalled.
- Critics say the pressure has hardened India's diversification moves, including shifts in oil sourcing, while Deepak Shenoy warned in April that reciprocal tariffs could prompt global reserve banks to dump the dollar.
