Russia has invited India to export more goods to its market after the US imposed new tariffs on Indian products. Russian diplomat Roman Babushkin said the US move, linked to India’s purchase of Russian oil, was “unjustified” and “unilateral.” He added that Russia values its energy partnership with India and will continue cooperation despite outside pressure. The US earlier announced a 25% duty on Indian goods, later raised to 50%, to put pressure on Moscow over Ukraine. India has called the tariffs unfair, while Russia said its economy is strong and welcomes Indian trade. (PC: NDTV)
