US Senator Lindsey Graham and other officials have issued strong warnings to India, China, and Brazil, threatening to impose up to 100% tariffs on their imports if they continue buying Russian oil.
The move is part of a broader push by the US and its allies to cut off financial support for Russia amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. The proposed 'secondary sanctions' aim to pressure these countries to reduce or halt their trade with Russia, but India and China have pushed back, citing energy security and accusing the West of double standards. NATO and US officials are also urging European allies to join in these measures.
The situation highlights growing geopolitical tensions and the risk of economic fallout for major emerging economies.
