A befitting reply to America: External Affairs Minister Jaishankar said – Europe buys more oil from Russia than India


Posted on 12th Apr 2022 03:48 pm by rohit kumar

There has been a series of counter-attacks between the US and India for several days to buy oil from Russia at an affordable price. Now in this matter, Indian Foreign Minister S Jaishankar has said that with the amount of oil that India buys from Russia in a month, Europe imports more of it in just one afternoon.

 

 

Such a target on America

 

Targeting America, the External Affairs Minister said that if you are questioning India for buying fuel from Russia, then I will ask you to focus on Europe. He said that we only buy the fuel we need, which is very important for our energy security. But Europe makes such big deals in just one afternoon.

 

 

America made this comment

 

Sources said Russian oil/gas is being sourced by various countries, especially in Europe. OECD Europe accounts for 75 percent of Russia's total natural gas exports. European countries (such as the Netherlands, Italy, Poland, Finland, Lithuania, and Romania) are also major importers of Russian crude. Significantly, reacting to the affordable Russian oil deal, the US on Tuesday said that even though India will not violate US sanctions, it will put the world's largest democracy on the wrong side of history.

 

Energy transactions should not be politicized

 

It is worth noting that in the past, India had said that legitimate energy transactions should not be politicized while responding to the comments of the US. In this report released quoting sources, it was said that the Indian government has been made clear that oil self-reliant countries or those who themselves import from Russia cannot credibly advocate restrictive trade at all. India is highly dependent on imports to meet its energy requirements. About 85 percent of the crude oil requirement (5 million barrels per day) has to be imported.

 

Such offers are always welcome

 

The report said that most of India's crude oil imports come from West Asia (Iraq 23 percent, Saudi Arabia 18 percent, United Arab Emirates 11 percent). It said that India has to continue to focus on competitive energy sources. We welcome such offers from all manufacturers. Indian traders also work in the global energy markets to find the best option. The US has also now become an important source of crude oil along with India (7.3 percent). Imports from the US are expected to increase significantly in the current year.
