India has all the right to protect its economy and people from chinese spying and tech dependency . Is nt that what US is doing with tariffs and bringing back jobs?? "Do they really want to start a trade war with China?" why not?? It already too late to stop china. India needs to protect its borders and economy from chinese incursions

It is, but for PRC, US is a major export partner, they can't really cut them off without themselves suffering too. So, US can afford to go on offensive there. Also, US does have technological capability to build the things they import themselves.

This might not be that true for India. Related subthread https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24355659
