Trump's Actions Threaten US-India Partnership
America and India, who were becoming good friends, had a falling out.
The US, under Trump, started treating India unfairly with tariffs and taking Pakistan's side.
This upset India, who now is reconsidering its relationship with the US.
Experts worry these actions could damage their friendship.
Trump's actions have strained the US-India relationship, undoing years of diplomatic efforts.
Tariffs on Indian goods were increased while China, a strategic rival, was not similarly penalized.
Trump's actions regarding Kashmir, including perceived favoritism towards Pakistan, angered India.
India is now considering thawing relations with China and maintaining ties with Russia.
Experts warn Trump's approach could drive India towards strategic rivals.
