India must lower its duties on American products: Peter Navarro

19 Dec 2019 Evaluate

Describing India as ‘the maharaja’ of tariffs, White House trade and economic adviser Peter Navarro has said that India must lower its duties on American products. He said ‘we're engaged with India. The problem, I like to joke, India's the maharaja of tariffs. They literally have the highest tariffs in the world of any large country. It's ridiculous.’

Navarro said US President Donald Trump is a big fan of the Reciprocal Trade Act, which would allow this country basically to charge higher tariff if a country won't lower theirs. He also said ‘The study I did showed that 90 per cent of the time India charges us higher tariffs than we charge them. So, yes, we've got to get India to belly up to that bar and lower their tariffs and make nice with trade.’

He further stated that US President Trump has also repeatedly claimed that India is a 'tariff king' and imposes 'tremendously high' tariffs on American products.
