Washington, October 15, 2026: In the next 10 days, US President Donald Trump must decide whether to impose sanctions on nations purchasing Russian oil and gas, including potential tariffs of up to 100% on countries like India. US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor stated the legislation would allow Trump to penalize countries buying Russian energy or aiding others in evading existing sanctions.
Gor emphasized the measures were not targeted at any specific country, emphasizing the goal of ending the war. India's inclusion in the possible sanctions rests solely with Trump, though Gor views the goal as reducing the financial support for the conflict. Gor expressed optimism about the India-US trade agreement despite Supreme Court ruling complicating talks, highlighting ongoing negotiations focused on smaller details.
Gor also discussed bolstering business relations in defense, IT, AI, and other sectors, emphasizing potential economic benefits for both nations.
