The news of the billions of dollars’ arms deal is wrong, Rajnath’s US tour according to the tour plan: August 8, 2025, 18:14 IST India US Relations: India reported the news on stopping defense purchases with America.

There are reports on India that stop negotiations related to the purchases of defense with America. It is made clear that progress is made in different cases of acquisition according to existing procedures. Sources in the Ministry of Defense provided this information on Friday. Earlier, it was previously cited that India temporarily stopped the purchase of various US defense systems, including striking vehicles, Spies-tank missiles and Boeing P-8i scouting aircraft, amid growing tension over rates. This ban is the first solid sign of resentment against America. According to the Reuters report, India stopped the plan to buy US weapons and the Indian defense minister also canceled his visit to America. The agency said the Minister of Defense Rajnath Singh was canceled to Washington, where he was expected to finalize the purchase, amid the continued tariff controversy. US President Donald Trump imposed an additional 25% fee on Indian goods on August 6 as a punishment for buying Russian oil by India on August 6. He said it means that India is financing Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. This has increased the total fee on Indian exports to 50% – which is the highest for any US trading partner. President Trump has a history of changing his position on Tarif and India said it is actively involved in a conversation with Washington. A source said that following the direction of tariff and bilateral relations by India, the purchases of defense could continue, but “not as soon as expected.” Another official imposed rate was mistakenly stated that written instructions were not given to stop the purchase, suggesting that India has the option to change its attitude immediately, although “at least no progress has been made yet.” India’s Ministry of Defense and Pentagon did not answer the questions the Reuters asked about this. Delhi, who has established a close partnership with the US for the past few years, said it is being targeted improperly and Washington and its European allies are still trading with Moscow if it is in their interest.
