The United States is closely watching the SCO Summit following the imposition of 50% tariffs on India by Trump. The presence of major powers on one platform, excluding Trump, makes this summit particularly significant. America is concerned about the increasing closeness between India and China, especially due to Russian oil purchases. The US does not want India to buy oil from Russia. It recently raised objections, stating that India was purchasing cheap oil from Russia and making significant profits. India strongly refuted these claims. India asserted that its purchases were based on global market conditions. India also stated that it has helped stabilize global oil prices by purchasing Russian oil. The US and European countries have themselves praised this move. India declared that it is prioritizing its energy needs and national interests and will continue to buy Russian oil.
