US Ambassador-designate Sergio Gor has arrived in India to assume his post amid strained bilateral ties, particularly concerning trade tariffs. Gor expressed optimism about future opportunities for both nations. His arrival follows recent US actions, including proposed tariffs on goods and Russian oil imports, which India has deemed unfair. Gor, a close aide to President Trump, previously met Indian leadership and is expected to focus on rebuilding the strategic partnership despite ongoing economic and geopolitical challenges.
