Subramanian argues that Trump's tariffs are unprecedented and could lead to a global recession, potentially ending the post-World War II international monetary, financial, and trade system.
He believes that India could benefit. But either way, it should focus on liberalising its economy, becoming more open to importing more from the world in order to export more and thus grow its industrial base.

- For nearly five years now, Umar Khalid and eleven other anti-CAA activists have been in jail. The Modi government has blamed them for organising the 2020 Delhi Riots – though Scroll's analysis of the chargesheets shows there is little proof for this.
As part of 'Delhi 2020', Scroll's series looking back at the Delhi riots, Shoaib Daniyal speaks to Banojyotsna Lahiri, activist, researcher and Khalid's partner on how life has been for the past five years.
