During his visit to India, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy voiced optimism that a diplomatic solution could be found to the ongoing dispute over US tariffs. "The sub-national relationship between New Jersey and India is so important. It's easy to be here when times are good. It's a lot harder to be here when times are a little choppy. By the way, I'm not a tariff guy. I accept Russia is an aggressor nation, and they need to be squeezed, period... I'm an optimist that we'll find some kind of common ground," ANI quoted Murphy as saying. While backing sanctions on Russia, Murphy warned they should not come at the cost of vital India-US ties. "I think there was a lot of pushback. I'm not sure it was just by Democrats. This Democrat is in Delhi right now, and that's not by accident... Russia deserves what's coming at them. But there's gotta be a way where you could do it without breaking down one of the most important relationships in the world for us. I'm not sure the pushback was along partisan lines, but I do think we're in a cooler heads or prevailing mode," ANI quoted Murphy as saying.
