U.S. President Donald Trump asserted that India is “cutting back completely” on Russian oil imports as Washington tightens sanctions on Moscow. He also voiced optimism about achieving a “complete deal” with China covering trade, technology, and raw materials. However, Indian officials clarified there has been no such move, emphasizing that energy purchases from Russia align with national interests. Trump’s remarks come amid efforts to balance U.S. foreign policy between Moscow, Beijing, and New Delhi, signaling renewed geopolitical maneuvering over global energy supply chains and trade relationships.
