Ashok Malik Says India’s Russian Oil Trade Is Legal, Transparent, and No Sanctions Are Breached
India is being unfairly targeted in Donald Trump’s latest outburst over Russian oil purchases, says Ashok Malik, India Head of The Asia Group. In a strong rebuttal to tariff threats, Malik states that India is not breaching any sanctions or price cap agreements—and the country’s energy diplomacy was established in full view of the West, including the US. He warns that Trump’s remarks reflect domestic political compulsions and not the reality of India’s responsible foreign policy. “India is collateral damage in Trump vs Putin,” says Malik, urging New Delhi to stay the course and not be bullied by vague accusations. This bold stand from one of India’s foremost strategic experts shows how India must assert its sovereign right to choose partners and secure energy needs, without falling into the trap of Western blame games.#ashokmalik #russianoil #indiarussiaoil #trumptariff #indiausrelations #energysecurity #crudeoilpricecap #ukrainewarimpact #indiarussia #usindiatrade #geopolitics #donaldtrump #putin #eurasianpolitics #globalenergymarket #india #breakingnews #trending #bharat #toi #toibharat #indianews
