Trump to Decide on Russia Sanctions Affecting India Within 10 Days, Says US Envoy
US President Donald Trump is expected to decide within the next 10 days whether to invoke sanctions under a US law targeting countries that purchase Russian oil and gas, including India. The legislation, passed with bipartisan support, authorizes tariffs up to 100% to pressure Russia over the Ukraine conflict. US Ambassador Sergio Gor emphasized the measures aim to end the war, not punish specific countries, and noted that India falls within the law's scope. Gor also expressed optimism about concluding an India-US trade deal.
