2019年8月11日，特朗普签署总统令，将对华关税暂停期延长90天，至11月10日。表面上看，这是缓兵之计，为中美紧张关系提供了一定的缓冲；然而，对 印度而言，这却是一记重拳。高达50%的惩罚性关税几乎席卷了印度对美出口商品的全部，让印度经济遭受重创。 印度的困境并非源于偶然。特朗普政府将印度视为"软柿子"，其高额关税背后是美国对印度在美印贸易谈判中"不配合"态度的强烈不满，特别是印度迟迟不 肯开放农业市场。 更深层次的原因在于，特朗普试图通过打压印度，以达到离间俄印关系，瓦解金砖国家联盟，最终实现其"联俄抗华"战略目标的野心。 印度成为了他策略中牺牲的"案例"，用以震慑其他国家。 特朗普的贸易战策略：一场没有赢家的博弈 因此，当与美国的关系跌入冰点时，莫迪政府将目光转向东方。一系列积极的举动标志着中印关系的显著改善：两国直航恢复，国防部长和外交部长互访， 以及对中企投资审查的放松，这些都表明印度正在主动修复与中国的战略关系。甚至比亚迪搁置两年的10亿美元投资项目也重新看到了希望。 莫迪此后对中国的访问，并非简单的多边会议参与，而是向美国发出的强烈信号：印度并非没有选择，世界并非只有一个中心。 印度寻求与上合 ...

不过，有经济学家指出，特朗普的关税策略或许可以让其实现想要的目的，但所伴随着的高风险危机不一定是美国可以承担得起的。一方面，印度是美国农 产品和科技产品的重要市场，高关税可能导致美国企业出口难度加大，加剧国内的通货膨胀问题。另一方面，与印度关系的恶化，可能会导致美印关系出现 事实上，特朗普也非常清楚这次对印度加征高额关税会产生一些难以预料的后果和影响，但是为了三个目标，特朗普不得不这样做：第一，地缘目标。印度 一直被认为是俄罗斯的核心盟友，因此对印度加征关税可以迫使印度减少对俄罗斯武器装备和石油天然气的依赖，最终让其主动倒向西方的"反俄阵营"，从 而配合美国实现孤立俄罗斯的战略目标。第二，经济目标。特朗普认为在与印度的贸易合作中，美国承受了巨额的损失，因此通过加征高额关税可以在一定 程度上扭转美印贸易逆差的局面，进一步推动制造业的回流，填补美国工业空心化。第三，政治目标。特朗普需要通过对外展示强硬姿态来迎合国内的保守 团体，尤其是加征高额关税在某种意义上来说也是兑现了自己当初竞选的承诺，在转移民众视线的同时也可以尽可能为2026年的中期选举"拉票"。 美印关系全面恶化，特朗普对印度加征高额关税遭莫迪强力反制， ...

"印度宣布搁置F-35采购计划"。这消息像颗小炸弹，在军事圈炸开了锅。要知道，F-35可是全球最先进的隐身战机之 一，印度追了它整整十年，怎么突然就"撂挑子"了？ 故事得从特朗普那张"大嘴"说起。大概五六年前，时任美国总统的特朗普在和印度官员会面时，随口说了句"可以考 虑向印度出售F-35"。就这么一句没经过军方和国务院核实的"客套话"，被印度当成了重大外交突破。那之后，新德 里的国防会议上，F-35成了高频词——怎么和现有的俄制苏-57搭配？预算够不够？甚至连飞行员培训方案都开始琢 磨了。印度媒体更是跟打了鸡血似的，隔三岔五就炒"美印F-35交易进入倒计时"。 但最扎心的，还得是美国自己的算盘落了空。这些年美国在亚太搞"印太战略"，把印度捧成"关键伙伴"，可真到核心 技术转让时，比谁都抠门。F-35的源代码不共享、发动机技术不开放，连维修保养都得依赖美国本土。印度心里门儿 清：买F-35就是给美国当"提款机"，还随时可能被卡脖子。现在特朗普关税一加，印度索性把这张"画饼"撕了——你 不让我占便宜？我也不让你得好处！ 这场F-35的闹剧，撕开了美印关系的遮羞布。美国把印度当"棋子"，印度却想当"棋手"；美国想 ...

Group 3: Implications for Global Strategy - The U.S. strategy in the Indo-Pacific region is at risk of unraveling as India, a key player, openly distances itself from U.S. influence [15][17]. - The situation illustrates a broader trend where emerging nations may seek to assert their independence from U.S. dominance, potentially leading to a shift in global alliances [19]. - The U.S.'s failure to treat India as an equal partner has resulted in a loss of credibility and strategic stability, undermining its geopolitical objectives [17][19].
