India proposes retaliatory tariffs against US duties
India is planning to slap $7.6 billion in tariffs on a long list of US products, after the US doubled its import duties on steel and aluminum.

With both countries now at odds in front of the World Trade Organization, how this plays out could shape future deals—and what lands on store shelves—for years to come.
