The Story
India's crude oil imports from Russia reached 55.5% in July. This occurred as the U.S. Senate passed a bill to levy up to 100% tariffs on top importing countries of Russian oil and gas. The bill now awaits House of Representatives passage. India's purchases show it will not be deterred by new U.S. sanctions.
