New Delhi: Donald Trump defeated his rival Kamala Harris in the US presidential election. After Trump was elected, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated him. In response, the Republican leader also had good things to say about Prime Minister Modi and India. It is no secret that Donald Trump and Prime Minister Modi are good friends, but Trump has created problems for India in many ways during his time in office. In this context, the question is will Trump soften his stance on India this time? In what areas might India face difficulties in Trump’s next term?
Business people may be affected
It is believed that after Trump takes office as the president of the United States, economic and trade relations with India may be affected. In fact, Trump’s economic policies are likely to be centered on “America First”, in which case countries such as India may face some difficulties. Even in his first term, Trump adopted policies to protect American industry and imposed high tariffs on imports from many countries, including India and China. Trump also asked India to remove or reduce tariffs on many U.S. products. If we look at the situation, Trump’s policies may affect Indian business.
Keep an eye on Trump’s visa policy
India will also pay close attention to Trump’s visa policy. His policies could cause a lot of problems for immigrants, and he has been outspoken on the issue throughout the election. Let us tell you that a large number of Indians are working in the US technology industry and they go there on “H-1 B” visa. Trump showed an extremely strict attitude towards “H-1B” visa rules during his first term. This Trump policy has had a huge impact on Indian professionals and technology companies. If Trump sticks to his old policies, there may be fewer jobs for Indians in the United States.
Trump also spoke on Kashmir issue
Trump had talked about mediation on Kashmir during his previous term. Trump even claimed that Prime Minister Modi also wanted him to mediate on the Kashmir issue. However, India rejected the then US president’s claims and said the prime minister did not say such things to Trump. Pakistan welcomed Trump’s announcement, but India was disturbed by it. In fact, India has repeatedly stated that it will not accept anyone’s mediation on the Kashmir issue. Now it remains to be seen where Trump will stand on Kashmir next term.
