The President of the United States Donald Trump said on Tuesday, August 5, that he did not know about the American imports of Russian chemicals and fertilizers, criticizing India for her business ties with Moscow.
When Donald Trump asked us the import of Russian uranium, chemical fertilizers, he accidentally replied, “I don’t know anything about it. I have to check it.”
“No knowledge of it” came after India claimed that the US continues to import from Russian uranium hexafluoride for its nuclear industry, fertilizers, as well as chemicals and the day after Donald Trump announced that it would “significantly increase” tariffs to India.
In a contribution to the truth of Social, Donald Trump, he said, “India not only buys a huge amount of Russian oil, but then for most of the purchased oils that sell it on the open market for big profits. They don’t care how many people in Ukraine are killed by a Russian war machine.”
Previously, the United States deposited 25 % of mutual tariffs in India. He also announced “additional fines” for his Russian energy imports and accused new Delhi of the “propeller” of the Russian War in Ukraine.
“Unjustified and unduly”
The Ministry of External Affairs responded strongly to Trump’s customs threat and called it “unfounded and disproportionate”. India claimed that its imports from Russia were in line with the requirements of the market and energy security, especially in Western countries, redirected traditional supplies to Europe after the conflict of Ukraine.
The statement states: “In fact, India has begun to import from Russia because traditional reserves have been diverted to Europe after the outbreak of conflict. At that time, the United States actively supports India imports to strengthen global energy markets. Indian imports are to ensure that It is alone that it is in itself, that it is, that it is alone, that it is in line with India, which is in itself, that it is in line with India.
He added: “As far as the United States is concerned, it continues to import from Russian uranium hexafluoride for its nuclear industry, Palladium for its industry, fertilizers, as well as chemicals.
India also did not mention that the bilateral trade with Russia in 2024 amounted to EUR 67.5 billion except 16.5 million tonnes of LNG, over its own volume of trade in Russia.
