'Venezuela Our Long-Standing...': MEA Replies To Trump's Russian Oil Claim, India-US Trade Deal

India’s Ministry of External Affairs clarified its stance on energy imports after former US President Donald Trump claimed that India would replace Russian crude with Venezuelan oil following a trade deal with Washington. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said Venezuela has been a longstanding energy partner for India, both in trade and investment. He noted that India imported Venezuelan crude until 2019–20, resumed purchases in 2023–24, but stopped again after sanctions were reimposed and a 25% US tariff was announced on buyers of Venezuelan oil. Jaiswal подчеркed that India’s energy decisions are guided by energy security, commercial viability, and market conditions. He added that diversifying energy sources amid evolving global dynamics remains central to India’s strategy, including decisions on Russian oil imports. #indiaenergy #oilimports #russianoil #venezuelanoil #indiamea #foreignpolicy #energysecurity #globalpolitics #indiatrade #oilsanctions #indiaustradedeal #tariffs #trump #pmmodi —————————————————————————————————————————— TOI Bharat – Your Window to India And Its Neighbourhood TOI Bharat delivers the latest news, biggest voices, sharpest views and in-depth coverage of India’s political, social and economic landscape.
