US President Donald Trump has accused India of profiting from Russia’s war in Ukraine by purchasing large quantities of Russian oil and reselling it on the global market.Trump added that he would “substantially” increase tariffs on Indian goods entering the United States in response.
“India is not only buying massive amounts of Russian Oil, they are then, for much of the Oil purchased, selling it on the Open Market for big profits,” Trump wrote in a social media post. “They don’t care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian War Machine. Because of this, I will be substantially raising the Tariff paid by India to the USA.”
Trump did not specify the exact tariff measures he would impose.
