The ministry of external affairs has dismissed social media rumors suggesting India is considering suspending or reviewing agreements with the United States in response to recent economic tensions. The ministry labeled such claims as disinformation, emphasizing that no such policy changes are under consideration. This clarification comes amid heightened trade friction following the United States President's announcement of new tariffs on Indian goods and warnings of further penalties over India's defense and energy ties with Russia. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has called for a renewed focus on supporting locally-made products and urged all Indians to unite in strengthening the domestic economy during a period of global uncertainty.
