Donald Trump Tim Cook | Trump Tells Apple Not To Build In India, Claims India Offers US Zero Tariffs US President Donald Trump has told Apple CEO Tim Cook that he does not want him "building in India" and that "India can take care of themselves". At a business event in Doha, the US President said he had a "little problem" with Tim Cook. "I said to him, my friend, I am treating you very good. You are coming up with $500 billion, but now I hear you are building all over India. I don't want you building in India. You can build in India, if you want to take care of India because India is one of the highest tariff nations in the world, so it is very hard to sell in India," the US President said.
