Jaishankar flags India’s concerns over US sanctions law in talks with Rubio
S Jaishankar reiterated India's concerns regarding the Sanctioning Russia and Iran Act in discussions with Marco Rubio. This legislation poses a potential threat of 100% tariffs on Russian oil purchases, which India heavily relies on. The sanctions coincide with disruptions in global energy supplies due to conflicts in the region. Approximately 45% of India's crude imports were from Russia in August.
