Indian officials believe that disagreements with the United States on mission and buying oil from Russia will most likely cause damage to New Delhi relations with Washington for a long time. Regarding this, the New York Times (NYT) is related to the source.
According to a senior Indian official, even if the parties seek to resolve the current crisis in the relationship, the rhetorical measures and the White House's actions in recent months will serve for many years to serve New Delhi a reminder of the United States's unreliable as a partner.
The document note that India will be difficult to replace the US market, as it accounts for about 20 percent of the country's total export. At the same time, a large domestic market, as well as many different trade and economic relations with Southeast Asian countries, Middle East and Europe, can strengthen India's position in the confrontation with the United States.
Earlier, US President Donald Trump said it was disappointing to continue buying Russian oil in large quantities. According to the president, he made it clear to India about how he was related to this.
Earlier, the US leader refused to reduce his mission with an amount of 50 percent introduced to India to buy Russian oil.
