India rejects US threats saying it will buy oil from any profitable place!
India's Ambassador to Russia, Vinay Kumar, stated that India will purchase oil where it is beneficial, and the US tariff decision is unfair and unreasonable.
"First of all, we clearly state that our goal is to ensure energy security for India's 1.4 billion people. Cooperation with Russia and other countries helps stabilize the oil market and the world oil market. Therefore, the US decision is unfair, unreasonable, and baseless. The Indian government will continue to take measures to protect national interests. Trade should be conducted on a commercial basis. If the import transactions are legal, Indian companies will continue to purchase oil under the most favorable conditions. This is the current situation."
Kumar emphasized that India-Russia trade is based on a bilateral relationship of mutual interest, "Our trade is market-driven. Our common goal is to ensure energy security for India's 1.4 billion people, and other countries, including the United States and European countries, are also trading with Russia."
