Former US President Donald Trump has publicly accused India and China of indirectly supporting Russia’s war in Ukraine through their continued purchase of Russian oil. According to Trump, these energy deals are enabling Moscow to finance its military operations despite international sanctions.
Trump’s comments have stirred discussion in diplomatic circles, as both India and China maintain that their energy imports from Russia are part of long-term contracts and not intended to influence the conflict. Experts note that while sanctions aim to limit Russia’s resources, global energy demands and economic considerations complicate the enforcement of these measures.
The former president emphasized that countries purchasing Russian energy are contributing to prolonging the conflict, highlighting the intricate intersection of geopolitics and global energy markets. His remarks come amid ongoing debates over the effectiveness of sanctions and the role of major economies in shaping the trajectory of the Ukraine war.
