Kamal Haasan Urges Trump to Respect India's Sovereignty Amid US Oil Waiver

Actor-politician Kamal Haasan addressed an open letter to US President Donald Trump, urging him to respect India's sovereignty amid the US granting India a 30-day waiver on certain trade tariffs related to Russian oil imports. Haasan emphasized that India does not take orders from foreign powers and wished peace and prosperity for the US. The waiver aims to help India manage existing oil shipments amid escalating tensions in the Middle East involving the US, Israel, and Iran, which have disrupted global energy markets and led to attacks affecting Indian nationals.
