Greater Noida: US President Donald Trump and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin met in Alaska on Friday to solve Ukraine issue. But they could not reach to any successful solutions. Therefore, Donald Trump has again started pressurising India on this issue.
After meeting with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump claimed that India has stopped buying Russian oil.
Talking to an American media channel, Trump said, “Russia lost a major client for their oil, which was India. India was doing 40% of the oil trade. If I did secondary sanctions now, that would be devastating for them.”
