US President Donald Trump has targeted India under the guise of Russia-Ukraine War and has also openly threatened. A statement issued by the White House said that President Trump wants the country who buy oil from Russia, they can be banned. Earlier, the US -led military alliance NATO i.e. North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) general secretary Mark Rut had openly threatened India, Brazil and China. Earlier, India had made its stand clear. India had said that double standards will not work in this case. Russia has always supported India. He supports India since the time of independence. Russia contributes a lot to the development of India. Let’s understand.
India said-the criteria will not work, we have no tension
On these threats, Foreign Ministry spokesman Randhir Jaiswal said that it is our biggest priority to meet energy needs for our people. We should avoid any double parameters in this case. At the same time, Union Petroleum and Natural Gas Minister Hardeep Singh Puri has said that in the midst of global geopolitical disruptions like Russia-Ukraine War Conflict and Middle East, India has actively increased the import sources of crude oil from 27 countries to 40 countries in view of their energy security needs. That is why we are not worried about any action like ban on Russia.
Russia is giving fighter and source code also
According to Wikipedia, Russia, the former Soviet Union, has been helpful for India on many occasions since the time of India’s independence. The Soviet Union supported India in the 1971 Indo-Pakistan War, which strengthened India’s position. Also, during the Cold War, the Soviet Union was a major arms supplier of India. This helped India develop its military capabilities. Whereas on both these occasions, America supported Pakistan. It should not be forgotten to India. That is why even today India trusts Russia more than America. Recently, Russia has also offered its SU-57 fighter jet and its source code. At the same time, America and France have been shy away from giving their engine and source codes at any time.
Gave with 1971 Indo-Pakistan War
According to Wikipedia, the former Soviet Union supported India in the 1971 war. At that time India helped East Pakistan (now Bangladesh) to get independence from Pakistan. The Soviet Union vetoed any resolution against India in the United Nations Security Council, which helped India to continue its military action. At the same time, the US had removed its warship in the sea to help Pakistan during the 71 war.
Russia gave weapons during the Cold War
The then Soviet Union gave India a lot of weapons during the Cold War. He was a major arms supplier country for India. It provided tanks, aircraft, missiles and other military equipment to India, which helped India to strengthen its defense capabilities.
Russian glimpse in the economic development of the country
The Soviet Union also helped India in economic development, especially in the establishment of steel factories like Bhilai and Bokaro. Apart from this, five -year plans were also launched on the lines of Russia’s plans. Which are no longer released. There is also a glimpse of Russian socialism in the development of India.
Russia also firmly extended hands in space
The former Soviet Union also helped in sending India’s first astronaut Rakesh Sharma into space in 1984. Apart from this, he also gave its rockets for many space missions in India. Satellite also cooperated fiercely in development.
There is multilateral cooperation between the two countries today
India and Russia are still working on many multilateral forums like United Nations, G20, BRICS and Shanghai Cooperation Sangathan. Russia has also supported India’s candidature for permanent membership in the United Nations Security Council. Although the relationship between the two countries remained uncomfortable in the middle, they soon returned to track.
Why did Trump furious, first understand it
White House Press Secretary Caroline Lewitt said on Thursday, “If Russia did not accept the terms of a ceasefire or peace agreement in 50 days, it would be imposed very strict tariffs and secondary senses.” Pointing to countries like India, Lavit said that the countries which will buy Russian oil will also be in the grip of these restrictions. Lewitt said that President Donald Trump wants the end of the war to end with a diplomatic solution. Actually, India asks for about 85 percent of its total oil needs from abroad. He imports about 35.10 percent of its total oil needs from Russia. Whereas before the war with Ukraine, he used to ask for only 2.10 percent crude oil from Russia.
Why NATO Chief had given such a threat
Earlier, NATO general secretary Mark Rute also gave an open warning to India, China and Brazil. If the trade from Russia continues, 100 percent tariffs and secondary seconds are fixed. He said that if you are the President of China, the Prime Minister of India or the President of Brazil and you continue to do business with Russia and buy their oil and gas, then you should know this. If the person sitting in Moscow does not take peace talks seriously, then I will put 100% secondary sanction.
