One of the first concrete reactions among Asian nations to the decision, it follows Trump's move on Saturday to levy a temporary tariff of 15 per cent, the maximum allowed by law, on US imports from all countries, following the court's rejection.

"The decision to defer the visit was taken after discussions between officials of the two countries," said the source, who sought anonymity as the matter is a sensitive one. "No new date for the visit has been decided."

Well, India will get hammered anyway.
POTUS has other legal options to put the screws on.
I’d advise India to be very careful.

Thanks a lot you a-holes on the Court. All you did was to weaken a country.

Nothing from India that I can’t live without. So don’t really care and am pretty sure millions of other Americans don’t care that much either.
