Ego: 50% Tariffs and 100% Confusion

When Ego Runs the Show… Guess Who?

Diplomacy is a delicate balance of trust, strategy, and mutual respect. But what happens when ego overshadows reason? The results look something like this:

First, the grand gesture — “India is my friend”. A handshake, a smile, a promise of partnership. 🤝

Then, within days, the hammer falls — a 50% tariff on indian goods. 🚧📊

As if that weren’t enough, pressure is mounted on the EU to double down with 100% tariffs on Indo-China exports. 📉🌍

Later, when relations with india naturally strain, the statement comes: “This has created a big problem in our ties.” 😳🌐

So, the question is simple:
Is this confusion? Is it ego dressed as strategy? Or is it just bad decision-making with global consequences?

The world doesn’t run on personal mood swings. Global trade is not a gamble. Each tariff is not just a number — it affects industries, jobs, and livelihoods in countries like india, where millions depend on exports to fuel growth.

And yet, the contradiction remains: how can one demand a Global Peace prize 🕊️ while leaving behind economic disruption, trade wars, and broken trust? Perhaps the more fitting recognition is the World Disruption Award 🌪️.

Because peace is not just the absence of war — it is also the presence of stability, fairness, and cooperation.

And when ego runs the show, peace has no stage.
