Trump, while visiting the Middle East, stated that the Indian government has proposed a trade deal that would lead to "no tariffs" on imported U.S. goods. He shared this information during an event with business leaders in Doha, where he also announced various deals between the U.S. and Qatar, including agreements concerning Boeing jets. However, the Indian government has yet to respond to his comments, and further details on the so-called trade deal remain undisclosed.

In a related remark, Trump mentioned a conversation with Apple CEO Tim Cook, expressing that he preferred the tech giant not to expand production facilities in India, emphasizing an intention to increase manufacturing within the U.S. This development continues to unfold as both nations engage in trade discussions.
