NEW DELHI: India has asserted that it is engaged with the Trump administration on the issue of US waiver on import of Iranian crude oil, which expires early next month.
“We are engaged with the US… The important thing is that we will continue our engagement with the US on the issue,” MEA spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said during a media briefing.
Last November, the US granted a six-month waiver to India, China, Greece, Italy, Taiwan, Japan, Turkey and South Korea to continue importing oil from Iran. The temporary waiver ends in May first week.
