NEW DELHI, India – India has decided to continue purchasing crude oil from Russia, despite growing Western pressure to reduce energy ties with Moscow, government sources revealed.
Officials emphasized that the decision is driven by national interests and economic pragmatism. While maintaining that India follows a diversified energy strategy, authorities confirmed there are no plans to scale back the import of discounted Russian oil — a key factor in keeping fuel prices stable for the country’s massive population.
India’s longstanding energy cooperation with Russia appears to remain steady, even as global powers reassess alliances in response to ongoing geopolitical tensions.
