India and Brazil deepen trade partnership amid U.S. tariff pressures

Faced with rising U.S. tariffs on key exports, India and Brazil have stepped up economic cooperation by expanding trade ties in agriculture, renewable energy and infrastructure under their preferential-trade arrangements. The move is seen as part of both countries’ strategy to navigate global protectionism and diversify supply-chain dependencies. Analysts observe that such south-south trade deals may reshape the global trading architecture and impact commodity flows, though implementation and regulatory harmonisation remain critical to achieving meaningful gains.
