Washington DC: US Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, President Donald Trump’s new Delhi’s new Delhi’s ongoing oil purchases from Russia to Indian imports because of the “very significant” raising “hit.

In an article in X, even though India’s oil trade with Russia is a valid concern, China, the largest buyer of Russian and Iranian oil, is given a 90 -day tariff pause.

Trump called India’s ongoing energy trade with Russia and said that it would increase the “very significant” tariffs to Indian goods within 24 hours.

“India not only buys a large amount of Russian oil, but then they sell it in the open market for large snow, for a large part of the purchased oil,” he wrote.

“They don’t care how many people in Ukraine have been killed by the Russian war machine. Therefore, I will greatly increase India’s tariff paid to the United States.”

Trump also, in an interview with CNBC, is high, although it does not specify a revised ratio, although the current tariffs of India’s current tariffs on American imports are very high.

The Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs described the proposed action as “unjust and irrational” shortly after the US announcement.

Mea spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said that the decision to import oil from Russia came after traditional suppliers changed exports to Europe during the Ukrainian conflict. The authority added that the US had previously accepted India’s decision for the stability of the global energy market.

He announced that India’s energy imports serve local needs and provides stable pricing for consumers. “This is a necessity that is forced from the global market situation,” he said.

The authority stressed that the countries that expressed their concerns about India’s trade with Russia are engaged in similar trade.

The European Union’s trade with Russia stopped at 67.5 billion euros in 2024 and provided more 17.2 billion euros recorded a year ago. EU -liquefied natural gas imports from Russia broke 16.5 million tons of record this year.

Data also showed that Europe’s imports from Russia contain chemicals, fertilizers, mining products, steel and machines.

Meanwhile, the US continues to import Paladium for Russian uranium hexafloride, electric vehicles and other industrial goods for nuclear energy.

Jaiswal reiterated that India’s trade decisions are based on market dynamics and national priorities. “Our ties with any country stand in their merit and should not be seen from the prism of a third country,” he said.

He also added that India and Russia maintained a “stable and time -tested partnership”.

In late July, the United States announced a 25 percent mutual tariff on Indian goods. At the same time, the United States and China, according to Al Jazeera, accepted a temporary reduction in its tariffs under a 90 -day pause, which reduced US tariffs from 145% to 30% and Chinese tasks from 125% to 10%.

The debate on tariffs and trade continues at a time when increasing global raw prices continue.

Analysts warned that major cuts in India in oil supply lines, including imports from Russia, may affect global energy markets.
