Trump made the remark after announcing a 25% reciprocal tariff on Indian imports, along with additional penalties linked to Russian crude imports.

"I understand that India is no longer going to be buying oil from Russia. That's what I heard, I don't know if that's right or not. That is a good step. We will see what happens," Trump said.
