President Trump accused India of aiding Moscow’s war on Ukraine by purchasing Russian energy, derailing trade talks between India and the United States.

US President Donald Trump has announced plans to sharply increase tariffs on Indian imports, citing India's continued purchases of Russian oil as a key concern. In a televised interview, Trump criticised India's trade practices and warned that supporting Russia's energy sector fuels its war in Ukraine.
