Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva discussed US tariffs on their exports and ways to boost bilateral trade during a phone call. The leaders reaffirmed their target of raising annual trade to over $20 billion by 2030, up from $12 billion in 2024. Lula confirmed a state visit to India in early 2026 and said BRICS leaders will soon meet to discuss US President Donald Trump’s tariffs, which have impacted Brazil and India the most. Meanwhile, China warned the Philippines against “playing with fire” after President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said his country would likely be involved in any China-U.S. conflict over Taiwan, citing geographical proximity and the large Filipino community there. Beijing urged Manila to respect the “One-China” principle as tensions in the South China Sea continue to rise.
