This report examines India’s foreign policy and energy security challenges following fresh US sanctions on Russian oil giants Rosneft and Lukoil. The discussion features political commentator Salman Soz, analyst Anand Ranganathan, and Ambassador Ashok Sajjanhar, who debate the repercussions for India. Panelists analyze India’s recalibration of oil procurement, which saw Russian imports surge to nearly 40%, questioning whether this represents a strategic move for energy security or a response to US pressure. The program also addresses Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s diplomatic decisions, including his virtual attendance at the ASEAN summit and absence from a Gaza peace conference, both attended by US President Donald Trump. Critics, including Salman Soz, argue these actions reflect an avoidance of direct engagement with President Trump amidst ongoing trade and energy tensions. Further segments explore domestic economic issues, such as high fuel taxes and the India-ASEAN Free Trade Agreement, and their impact on Indian businesses.
