GTRI: Trump's double attitude on Russian oil imports; ignoring China's role for geopolitical interests
GTRI: According to the GTRI report, China is Russia's largest oil buyer but the US President is avoiding criticizing China. He is unfairly targeting India and making false allegations.
China is Russia's largest oil buyer; US President Trump is nevertheless unfairly targeting India despite this. This has been provided in the latest report by the Global Trade Research Initiative (GTRI). In the report, it has been said that the US is not condemning China and unfairly holding India responsible for importing Russian oil.
It says that this selective attitude of Trump may be motivated by geopolitical interests. According to the data, China imported Russian oil worth $ 62.6 billion in 2024. At the same time, India imported $ 52.7 billion. Despite this, Trump has focused his criticism on India, ignoring China's big role.
The report also contradicts Trump's new assertion on Truth Social where he accused India of purchasing vast amounts of Russian oil and reselling it at tremendous profits. GTRI explained that the statement is not only factually wrong but also misleading.
