[Global Network Report, Reporter, Li Ziyu] According to India Today, Russian Satellite News Agency and other media reports on the 26th, sources told Germany's Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung Zeitung that US President Trump has tried to talk to Indian Prime Minister Modi on the phone at least four times in recent weeks, but Modi refused to talk to him.

Russia's Sputnik news agency said that the "Frankfurt Report" believes that there are signs that Modi is dissatisfied with the United States 'imposition of additional tariffs on India and Trump's remarks that India is a "dead economy." Modi's refusal to speak Mandarin with Trump stems from both "deep anger" and "prudent considerations."

At the time of the announcement, there was no response from India and the United States on the information.

Previously, Trump signed an executive order on August 6 to impose an additional 25% tariff on Indian imports of US products on the basis of India's "direct or indirect import of Russian oil".According to the executive order signed by Trump on July 31, the United States will start imposing 25% tariffs on Indian imports of US goods from August 7.After the addition of additional tariffs announced on August 6, Indian imports of US goods will generally apply a 50% tariff rate.The U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued a notice on August 25 local time, intending to impose a 50% tariff on Indian goods from August 27 at zero.In this regard, India said that the US approach to impose tariffs on India was "unfair, unfair and unreasonable", and India will "taken all necessary action" to safeguard national interests

Moreover, Modi said on August 2 that India "will become the world's third-largest economy" and urged people to buy and promote local products.Indian media that this was an indirect response to Modi's previous announcement that Trump would impose tariffs on Indian goods and call India a "dead economy".

A cow plays the piano: India severely humiliated Trump, some say the battle with China is over

The Indians were very angry, and on August 23, Trump was even more violently humiliated.

In an Indian way.

One of the most prominent scenes on August 23 in India's long-standing Marbat Festival was a massive mass of Indians holding a huge Trump statue on the march.

The paper statue of Trump, wearing a golden tie and a gorgeous red dress, can only be said to be a bit like Trump, with a strong Indian flavor.

Are the Indians paying tribute to Trump?

You're wrong, and, moreover, you're wrong.

Indians have strongly protested against Trump, protesting against Trump¡¯s imposition of 50% tariffs on India.

On the statue of Trump, there are also many slogans, which roughly mean:

¡°America to die!¡±

¡°Whoever builds a wall against our goods, his business will go bankrupt.¡±

"Scare our country with tariffs and India's iron fist will make them cry."

¡°He told India that you were my friend, but he secretly loved Pakistan.¡±

Some words, perhaps more Indian, are a bit obscure, but in one sentence:The Indians are angry, and the United States is a knife behind you.

The most humiliating thing was the next method.

It is that during the festival of Malbat, Indians would burn a statue of a ¡°evil force¡±.

Unfortunately, in Indian terms,¡°This year, Trump has become a symbol of evil in the hearts of Hindus¡ªhis statue has been burned in front of thousands of people.¡±

Paper-wrapped Trump statue

Could there be a more insulting way to Trump than this?

You know, just a few months ago, some Indians put Trump on the offering table, worshiped him, presented bananas and various curries. Many people still prayed silently and voted for Trump.

A few months later, he was severely slapped in the face.

Without saying a word, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on India, and he also imposed a 25% tariff on India's purchase of Russian oil.

As a result, Indian goods were exported to the United States at unprecedented tariffs of 50%.

The highest in the world, tied with Brazil.

It turns out that Indians thought that they were close friends of the United States. Only now have I discovered that India is the opponent of the old American fist.

That's not enough, Trump also scolded India as a "death economy".

Indians were scolded silly-we always boast that we are the fastest-growing major economy in the world, but you actually call us a "death economy"?

More importantly, Modi has always cheated on himself and Trump as a friend, and has also publicly stood up to Trump, saying in the words of the Indians, ¡°Modi always hugged Trump like a brother who has been disconnected for years.¡±

Modi has always cheated on himself and Trump is a friend.

Now, Trump has stabbed in the back, and India is hurt, aggrieved, and angry.

So, there was also during the Marbat Festival, the angry Indians publicly burned the bullshit of Trump statue.

It is said that under Trump's social media account, the biggest villain force is Indian netizens.

India after all, there are a lot of people, English is good, many people ran to the Trump account, criticized Trump's superhero too barbaric, also revealed that he has pedophilia, and so on.

Many Indians also launched a campaign against Coca-Cola and McDonald¡¯s.

This is a civil action, and what about the Indian government?

An anger still came to his face.

Although Trump once hinted that India had stopped buying Russian oil. However, Indian officials explicitly denied that India will continue to buy anything that is completely absent.

India continues to buy, but the US government continues to approve.

U.S. Treasury Secretary Bescent recently denounced India for buying Russian oil, which is completely profit-making, which is fundamentally different from China. "I call it'Indian-style arbitrage ', where Russian oil is purchased at a low price, processed into refined oil and then resold. This situation suddenly appeared during the war, which is unacceptable."

I saw that Indian Foreign Minister Sujarsen responded on the 23rd. Some pro-American people also accused others of doing business as "too ridiculous and ridiculous." He said that his solution is,"If you have a problem purchasing Indian refined oil products, don't buy them."

He also said in Moscow earlier: We are not the biggest buyer of Russian oil, China is; we are not the biggest buyer of Russian natural gas, I am not sure, maybe Europe is... In the past few years, the United States has told us that you have to do everything in your power to maintain the stability of the world energy market, including buying Russian oil...

What does that mean?

1. You yourselves are buying Russian oil, Russian fertilizers, and Russian nuclear materials, but you blame India.

If you don¡¯t want to buy oil from India, don¡¯t buy it, nobody forces you to buy it.

We bought Russian oil, but we were encouraged by you Americans to maintain the stability of the world¡¯s energy market.

But this kind of words feels more like a chicken talking to a duck.

You can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep.I see, there are Indian netizens still angry message:The battle with China is over, now it's a battle with America...

Indians placed Trump on the table for worship.

Finally what do you think?

Let's make three superficial points.

First, India should have woken up a long time ago.

I see some Westerners lamenting that Trump is undermining 20 years of US diplomacy with India, pushing India towards Russia and China.

What lament!

In fact, in the past 20 years, India has been on both sides, and the fantasy of becoming an ally of the West is not only a dream, but also a dream.

India is not Japan, after all, can the West not tolerate a rising China, but can it tolerate a rising individual India?

If you need India to restrain China, India is a bargaining chip; when you don't need India, India is a broken shoe.

Since they are broken shoes, they will be abandoned sooner or later.

Trump just kicked this broken shoe into the trash can in the most direct and insulting way.

It has to be said that in international politics there are no permanent friends, only permanent interests - but if even interests are out of balance, friendship becomes the most luxurious decoration.

Second, geopolitics is rapidly evolving.

We see that just on the day that Trump waved the big bang on India, the Indian side revealed that Modi would visit China.

India has now officially announced that Modi will attend the Shanghai Summit in Tianjin.

But this is definitely a historic visit. After all, it is Modi's first visit to China in seven years after the conflict in the Galvan Valley.

Indeed, India should be happier with a neighbor like China, even in the worst of relations, has China said Trump insulted India?

In addition, Trump and Putin recently met and announced that they would suspend further sanctions against Russia. Will India, which has suffered from the disaster, at least the 25% sanctions, also suspend?

Looking at the news, the trade negotiations between the United States and India originally scheduled for August have been postponed. Trump announced that a 38-year-old close friend would serve as the ambassador to India.

Just various public humiliations will be unforgettable memories for Indians.

Between countries, dignity is more non-negotiable than interests. Once lost, no amount of compromise will bring back respect.

Third, it is time to test Modi's wisdom.

We all know the saying, "Modi immortal, mana is boundless".

I understand that this is more of an affirmation to Modi¡¯s wrist; for Trump, who has six disapprovals, Modi is also thinking about the response.

Where to go from, who is friend who is enemy, India really has to take care of.

But a few things are also certain.

In this world, not every country has enough backbone and confidence to say no to the United States!

Some countries, also always think of themselves as a brilliant chess player, finally discovered that they are only abandoned chess.

To be an enemy of the United States is dangerous, but to be a friend of the United States is sometimes even more deadly.

If this is the case, India may have to think deeply about it.

History never repeats itself, but it always has the same rhyme - what burns today is a statue, and what burns tomorrow may be an illusion of an era.

Of course, if Trump knew that his image, suffered such Indian humiliation, he would surely jump high.India, I am not done with you!
