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.”
