Efforts on to put pressure on India for importing Russian oil amidst Ukraine conflict

India’s import of oil from Russia has become a major irritant for certain constituencies in the United Kingdom and the United States, the two countries that are leading the charge against Russia with Ukraine in the war.

As per official data, in March 2022 India was importing 0.4 million oil barrels a day from Russia, which now stands at 2.1 million a day, an increase of 425%.

Sources in diplomatic circles told The Sunday Guardian that a sustained effort was going on to force India to stop it from buying Russian oil. These efforts were being made at multiple levels in London and Washington, including by trying to put pressure on the Rishi Sunak and Joe Biden governments to use their influence on Delhi.
