What is the agenda on tariff and trade?

Let us tell you that the visit of US Vice President JD Vance is taking place at a time when President Donald Trump has imposed tariffs on 60 countries including India, so the issue of trade is going to be at the top in the talks between the two sides. Along with this, there will also be talks on regional security and relations between the two countries. This visit of Vance is important for completing the first phase of the trade agreement between India and America. Both the countries have set a target of taking mutual trade to $ 500 billion by the year 2030, so there can be a discussion between Vance and Modi on reducing trade, import duty and non-tariff barriers. Along with this, this visit of Vance is also important for reducing the tension increased due to the tariff policy of the Trump administration and building mutual consensus.
