India has refused to bow to western pressure and join anti-Russia sanctions. What's more, New Delhi has significantly boosted trade with Moscow in the past year.
Exports of Russian oil and oil products to India increased to 32 million tonnes in 2022, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Thursday, adding that further growth is expected this year.
"Among the countries where additional volumes of oil and oil products will go are, first of all, China and India. Previously, we practically did not supply these products to India, but last year, exports there amounted to 32 million tonnes, there will be even more this year," Novak said in an interview with the Izvestia newspaper.
Last week, India's External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar denied EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell's accusations that New Delhi was violating Russia sanctions by selling fuel produced with Russian oil to the European Union, and advised the diplomat to get acquainted with the EU Council's regulations.
