West’s criticism of India for Russian oil imports reflection of its double standards: Russia
New Delhi: The criticism of India by the Western countries over its import of Russian crude oil while exempting themselves from their “own illegitimate sanctions” is a reflection of their unprincipled position and double standards, Russian Ambassador Denis Alipov said on Sunday.
In an exclusive interview to PTI, the envoy said trade between India and Russia has been on a significant upswing and several payment systems are in place including an option even to use currencies of third countries with certain “partners” in Asia and in the Middle East offering viable choices.
