IAF Downs Pakistani Jets in Operation Sindoor Amidst US Trade Tensions

At the same time, trade relations between India and the United States are facing issues.
The US has imposed higher tariffs on Indian exports, but India is standing firm on certain issues, like the ones related to agriculture and dairy, and is ready to negotiate.
