The US deputy NSA, which has been instrumental in drafting US sanctions against Russia, arrived in New Delhi on Wednesday for a two-day visit amid growing concern among Western powers over India’s criticism of the attack on Ukraine.
His comments came on the day that Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov arrived in India for a two-day visit, and talks on the ruble-rupee payment mechanism for bilateral trade, including the purchase of Russian oil.
” This is a rapid acceleration of India’s imports from Russia because it is related to fuel or any other exports that are currently banned by other elements of the US or international sanctions regime, ” he said.
Singh was asked about India’s decision to buy oil at a discounted rate from Russia. There has been no response from the government to comments made by the US Deputy NSA. He said the US is ready to help India meet its fuel and defense equipment needs.
“We are ready to help India diversify its energy resources, which is like defense resources in a given period,” he said.
Referring to cooperation under the Quad Framework, Singh said in the consortium that China was a strategic threat to the open and secure Indo-Pacific.
“China and Russia have now announced a seamless partnership and if you set it against the reality that Russia has said China is its main strategic partner, it will have real consequences for India,” Singh said.
Singh said Russia’s “needless war” had serious consequences for the world.
“I understand that there are consequences and consequences from Putin’s needless choice war.
“You see them in food prices, refugee flows, trade disturbances. But it’s important not to forget the root cause of those effects is Putin’s war.
