India and the US have held several rounds of negotiations for a trade deal over the past few months, with Delhi even reducing tariffs on goods like Bourbon whiskey and motorcycles to placate the US. But the US runs a $45bn (£33bn) trade deficit with India, which Trump is keen to reduce.

President Donald Trump says the United States and India are still negotiating on trade despite new tariffs slated to begin in a few days.

President Donald Trump said he had reached a trade deal with South Korea that would impose a 15% tariff on its exports to the US and see Seoul agree to $350 billion in US investments.
