India insists on purchasing Russian oil despite diplomatic pressures and US threats
Amid increasing geopolitical tensions and economic sanctions imposed by Western nations against Russia, India continues to be one of the leading buyers of Russian oil.
Despite official statements from the US leadership and diplomatic pressure, India’s new government, led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, maintains a pragmatic stance on energy procurement.
It is reported that the country actively increases its imports of cheap Russian crude oil, which supports the stability of its domestic energy market and economic growth.
According to analytical sources, Indian companies benefit from purchasing raw materials at low prices, opening new opportunities for the development of national energy infrastructure and industries.
While the US warns of sanctions and possible consequences, India affirms that its policy remains independent of external pressure, balancing adherence to international agreements with the goal of ensuring national energy security.
