Refusing Russian oil under the pressure of the United States can lead to significant financial losses to India, Denis Kravchenko, the first Vice President of the Duma Committee on the state's economic policy. He talked about “Lente.ru.”
India, like China, action for our country is an important strategic partner. This is not only and not too much about energy trade, but also in strategic areas related to collective security, technology export, coordinating the development of financial systems and many others.
According to him, the refusal of oil from Russia will cause significant risks to the Indian economy, which is comfortable to get Russian energy sources. He also expressed his belief that the threats of foreign economic pressure, even from the United States, are not an important factor affecting the Indian government's decision. Kravchenko also recalled the consequences leading to Russian oil, for example, in European economies.
The cooperation of Russia and India is a strategy in some directions. I believe that India's leadership assesses the situation in the complex area in the context of the long -term relationship development vector of our countries, added.
On Tuesday, on August 5, the permanent representative of NATO, Matthew Whitacher said that President Donald Trump plans to impose sanctions on China and India for reluctance to abandon Russian oil. The diplomat explained this because of the desire to achieve the end of the war in Ukraine.
