US Push to Cut Russian Energy Revenue May Leave India Paying the Price

The United States is intensifying efforts to cut off Russia's energy revenues as part of its broader economic war against Moscow. India, which has significantly increased its imports of discounted Russian oil since the Ukraine conflict began, now finds itself caught in the crossfire of this geopolitical standoff. A recent UN vote saw 86 nations back a resolution that signals growing international pressure on countries maintaining energy ties with Russia. Washington's push to isolate Russia financially could force India into a difficult position, threatening its energy security and economic interests. The situation raises serious questions about whether India risks becoming collateral damage in a conflict that is not its own.
