Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal expressed confidence that India-US relations are poised for further growth with Donald Trump's presidency. Labeling Trump a 'friend of India,' Goyal underscored a positive outlook for the bilateral relationship's future.

During the election campaign, Trump suggested that India imposes high tariffs on foreign products, and indicated plans for reciprocal taxation. Goyal reiterated the importance of waiting for Trump's administration to assume office before assessing any policy changes.
