India-US Trade Deal Progress

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt announced that the US and India are nearing the final stages of a new trade agreement. “These agreements are being finalized, and an official update from the President and the trade team is expected soon,” she said, following remarks from President Donald Trump hinting at the deal.
