President Donald Trump said that India has offered to cut all its tariffs on US goods but downplayed any sense of urgency to reach a trade agreement with the world’s fourth-largest economy.

Trump cited India as an example of a country where he’s seeking to slash barriers to US exports during an interview on Fox News’s Special Report with Bret Baier that aired Friday.
