US President Claims India Will 'Almost Stop' Buying Russian Oil by Year-End

US President Donald Trump has claimed that India has communicated its intention to significantly reduce its purchase of Russian crude oil, bringing imports down to "almost nothing" by the end of the year. The statement comes amid ongoing diplomatic tensions between Washington and New Delhi over trade tariffs and India's energy relationship with Moscow. India has not officially confirmed this policy shift. Trump's remarks highlight continued US pressure on its partners to isolate Russia economically over the war in Ukraine.
