MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Sovereign countries have the right to choose their own trading partners, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday, commenting on the situation with India's purchase of Russian oil.
On Monday, Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said that New Dehli considers the criticism by the United States and the European Union over Russian oil imports to be unjustified and unwise and will take measures to protect its interests and economic security.
"We believe that sovereign countries should have and have the right to choose their own trading partners, partners in trade and economic cooperation, and to choose those trade and economic cooperation regimes that are in the interests of a particular country," Peskov told reporters.
There are many statements that are actually attempts to force countries to stop trade relations with Russia, the official said, adding that such threatening statements are illegal.
