India has finally responded to U.S. pressure over its Russian oil purchases. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal clarified that New Delhi makes decisions based on market availability and global conditions, not outside dictates. This comes after Trump’s stern warning against Russian oil deals and fresh U.S. sanctions on Indian firms tied to Iran. With reports of Indian refiners halting Russian oil buys last week, the big question is: Will India bow to Washington’s pressure or chart its own energy course?
