INDIA-US TRADE DEAL NEARS FINISH LINEA major India-US trade breakthrough appears to be within reach, with U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor saying the agreement is “almost” finalised in principle.Speaking at the Economic Times World Leaders Forum, Gor said virtually everything in the proposed trade agreement has been agreed upon in principle, with the remaining work focused largely on legal and technical language and reconfiguring parts of the text.The latest development comes amid renewed high-level engagement between New Delhi and Washington. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is expected to visit India again in October, following his five-day India visit in May. Gor said the frequency of senior-level visits reflects the importance Washington attaches to its relationship with India.The trade agreement could have major implications for tariffs, market access, exports, investment and the broader India-US economic partnership.Gor has also sought to distinguish the Trump administration's position from a bipartisan U.S. congressional push for potentially imposing tariffs on countries buying Russian oil — an issue that could have implications for India.Watch CNN- LIVE for the latest developments on the India-US trade deal, tariff negotiations, Rubio's October visit, Modi-Trump ties and what the agreement could mean for Indian businesses and consumers. n18oc_indian18oc_world CNN- is your trusted source for breaking news, updates, and in-depth analysis from around the world.
