Trump's Russian Oil Claim vs MEA's Stand: US-India Trade Tensions Escalate | India Today News

Tensions between the United States and India are escalating over trade and energy policies following statements from US President Donald Trump. He announced a 25% tariff and penalties on India, and also claimed to have heard that India will no longer purchase oil from Russia. Regarding this, Trump stated, "I understand India no longer is going to be buying oil from Russia. That’s what I heard. I don’t know if that’s right or not, but that’s a good step." In response, India’s Ministry of External Affairs clarified its position on energy procurement. The MEA spokesperson said that India’s decisions are guided by what is available in the markets and the prevailing global situation, without confirming any change in its policy towards Russian oil imports. The spokesperson noted that the India-US partnership has weathered challenges before and will continue to move forward.
