U.S. President Donald Trump has reignited discussions about a potential major trade agreement with India, calling it a “very big” deal that could follow his recent economic negotiations with China. Speaking at a rally, Trump hinted that the groundwork is being laid for an ambitious trade pact aimed at significantly boosting bilateral economic ties between the world’s largest and fifth-largest economies. The announcement comes amid growing global economic uncertainty and trade realignments, with both Washington and New Delhi showing interest in enhancing cooperation.

Trump, known for his tough stance on trade imbalances during his previous term, emphasized that the proposed deal would be designed to benefit both nations, particularly by addressing market access issues and tariff concerns. The U.S.-India trade relationship has grown steadily in recent years, but unresolved issues surrounding agricultural exports, digital trade, and tariffs on certain goods have stalled talks on a comprehensive agreement.
