Washington is unhappy: India and China increased their oil purchases in Russia by an order of magnitude

4

The United States began to worry about the large volumes of purchases of Russian oil by China and India. For example, at a hearing in the Congressional Foreign Affairs Committee, Amos Hockstin, senior adviser for energy security at the State Department, called on New Delhi to limit purchases of energy resources from Russia.

You have seen the numbers for India in the press. In terms of Russian supplies, they have moved from an average of 100 barrels of oil per day to almost 800. China has also increased its purchases of fuel from Russia

Hoxtin emphasized.



At the same time, an official from the US State Department asked his Indian "colleagues" when concluding oil deals with Moscow to act in such a way that it does not look like using the suffering of Europeans who refused such trade with Russia. In addition, India must firmly insist on its negotiating positions.

At the same time, Amos Hoxteen noticed that the Indian economy more dependent on Russian black gold than Europe and the US. The congressman thus expressed dissatisfaction with the increase in Russian oil supplies to India and China and suggested that there should be a ceiling for increasing such purchases.

Meanwhile, the cost of August futures for Brent oil reached about $124 per barrel.

      It can be assumed, with a high degree of probability, that the increase is due to old contracts, because neither China nor India has any reason to be sanctioned with a turnover of about $ 750 billion with the United States. and $120 billion, respectively, against $140 billion. and $12bn. from RF.

      These are flowers .... The Saxons, creating a new military bloc, suddenly discovered that the countries of the Indo-Pacific region flatly refused to host US missiles. Absolutely. Even against China, even against anyone. And this means that not blinded by the feeling of belonging to a superior race, Asia looks at Europe as the finished and ... (mentally retarded).

      The world of NWO in Ukraine has already taught a lot. And here are the flowers...
