    NEW DELHI: The standing committee on external affairs, headed by Congress MP Shashi Tharoor, will be briefed on the latest developments in India’s foreign policy on Monday, official sources said.The panel will be briefed by representatives of the ministry of external affairs and the ministry of commerce & industry on the developments in India’s foreign policy with special reference to US-India trade negotiations and tariffs, they said. The MEA told the parliamentary panel ahead of the meeting that the US decision to impose secondary sanctions on India had forced it into a geopolitical contest not of its making. Despite the erosion of trust, it said India remained committed to engaging constructively with the US. Earlier this week, on Friday, while responding to the 50% tariffs on India imposed by the US, the Congress MP had said India must also safeguard its interests. “What is happening is concerning. A country with which we had close relations, and we were working as strategic partners. If that country has changed its behaviour, then India will have to think about many things… Perhaps in the coming two to three weeks, we can hold talks and find a way out. India will also have to look after its own interests,” Tharoor said.
