India Raises Concerns Over US Sanctions Law Impacting Bilateral Ties and Energy Market
India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri met a bipartisan US Congressional delegation led by Brian Mast to express concerns about the Lindsey O. Graham Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act of 2026.

Misri highlighted potential impacts on bilateral relations and the international energy market. Discussions also covered broader India-US ties, energy security, counter-terrorism, and navigation freedoms. The next India-Russia summit is planned to be held in Russia.
