The Trump administration had introduced the 10% tariff in February, following a Supreme Court decision that struck down many of his earlier tariffs. The administration argued that the new measure was necessary to address balance-of-payments deficits, citing Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974. However, the court found that this legal justification was not applicable to the current situation.  The U.S. trade court's ruling has implications for the administrat

EU-India FTA May Begin Within A Year The EU-India FTA could come into force within a year, potentially by early 2027, after both sides concluded negotiations on January 27, 2026.

President Donald Trump stated on May 6 that he has been involved in "good talks" with Iran over the past 24 hours and suggested that a deal to end the ongoing war between the two countries is "very possible." Trump emphasized that the discussions centered on Iran's nuclear program, which remains a critical point of concern for the United States. The president stated, “Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon, and they won’t.” He added that this is a point the Iranian government has already agreed to, alongside other key terms. Trump's statements come after a recent warning to Iran that the United States would escalate its military action if a deal is not reached. "If they don’t agree, the bombing starts, and it will be, sadly, at a much higher level and intensity than it was before,” Trump wrote in a post on Truth Social on May 6. This aggressive stance reflects the president’s resolve to prevent Iran from advancing its nuclear capabilities. In the wake of these talks, Israeli political officials have indicated that there are signs of progress in negotiations between Trump and Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi. According to sources, Israel sees this as an opportunity for diplomatic progress. However, the Israeli officials also warned that internal divisions within Iran’s leadership could potentially jeopardize the long-term stability of any agreement. As of now, the future of US-Iran relations remains uncertain, but Trump’s recent comments suggest that both sides are exploring avenues for negotiation. If a deal is reached, it could have significant implications for regional stability, particularly regarding the security of the Strait of Hormuz. This strategic waterway has long been a focal point of tensions in the Middle East due to its role in global oil shipments. The president’s assurance that the Hormuz Strait would be “OPEN TO ALL, including Iran” if an agreement is reached suggests that economic and geopolitical interests are also being considered alongside security concerns. While the talks between Trump and Iran hold promise, the situation remains volatile. Both the US and Iranian governments face internal and external pressures that could complicate efforts to reach a lasting peace agreement. With the threat of military action still on the table, the world watches closely as the two nations navigate these delicate negotiations.
