India will keep paying high tariffs over Russian oil, warns Trump

US President Donald Trump has doubled down on his claim that India has agreed to restrict its Russian oil purchases. Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One, the US leader threatened to impose "massive tariffs" on Indian goods unless New Delhi agreed to his terms and halted its purchases. "I spoke with Prime Minister Modi of India, and he said he's not going to be doing the Russian oil thing," he said, reiterating what he said in the past week.The remarks came amid growing US pressure on Russia's trade partners, particularly in the energy sector, which Washington argues indirectly funds Moscow's war effort in Ukraine.

India last week rejected Trump's claim that he had a telephonic conversation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi over New Delhi's Russian oil imports. When asked about India's assertion, he replied, "But if they want to say that, then they'll just continue to pay massive tariffs, and they don't want to do that."Russia has become India's largest oil supplier in recent years, providing about one-third of its total crude imports, according to energy ministry data. India has defended the purchases as necessary for energy security, especially as Russian crude is sold at discounted rates.
