India raises tariffs, escalating trade fight with Donald Trump

India first proposed the tariffs a year ago in response to the Trump administration’s increased tariffs on imported aluminum and steel. India announced late Saturday that it would raise tariffs on 28 categories of imports from the United States, the latest escalation in what has been a slow-motion trade fight between the two countries.
