Russians are brave people, it is only a fool that will isolate a great people so gifted intellectually, technological, naturally & physically.

It will interest you to also know that most Western nations buy Russia oil, energy, arms & technology through the black market.

If u think India can decide for themselves who they wish to deal with as a sovereign nation, why do u think Ukrainians can't do same without being bullied by Russia?

embarassedChina will also definitely buy more Russian oil.
Western effort to ostracise Russia is doomed to fail. This is only just the beginning
Russia will feel the heat of the western imposed transition. But it will eventually pull through and come out better and stronger
Joe Biden you see your life
all of you na mumu, both India and China can't withstand US and European Sanctions. Not even China herself. Chinna cannever survive without bilateral relationship not even in Africa or Europe. India have the highest population of poor people in the world. Imagine all the exports from China to Europe and Africa are stopped, China don finish be that.

.... Baba calm down... The west is not losing shit... India bought the oil at a discount... Moscow is desperate at the moment and people will take advantage of it.... Oil wen dey sell for $10/barrel fit sell for as low as $2 per barrel... If u no sell, drink your oil... It's no longer in demand as before.... The sanctions won't do anything to USA and the west but it will make people take advantage of Russia... See it from that angle
Consider this:

Russia’s total natural resources are valued at USD 75 trillion.

Russia has the largest reserves and is the largest exporter of natural gas. It has the second largest coal reserves, the eighth largest oil reserves and is the largest exporter of oil and wheat in the world.

Russia is a leading producer of copper, fluorspar, iron ore, lime, gold, magnesium compound and metals, mica, cobalt, aluminum, asbestos, arsenic, cadmium, coal, cement, boron, bauxite, vanadium, titanium sponge, tin, tungsten, potash, sulfur, silicon, rhenium, steel, pig iron, nickel, palladium, phosphate, petroleum, nitrogen, peat and oil shale.

Russia has 40% of world’s gold reserves.

20% of the global production of industrial grade diamonds and 25% of global gemstone production come from Russia.

11% of the global aluminum market is controlled by just one Russian company, Rusal.

Russia has more than a fifth of the world's forests. About one-fifth of the timber in the entire world is present in the forests of Siberia.

If you laid the oil and gas pipelines of Russia around the equator, it would encircle earth 6 times.

Only one lake of Russia, Lake Baikal has 20 percent of entire fresh water in the world. Russia has 4 of the 10 largest rivers in the world.

Russia’s top 20 billionaires have a combined wealth of about USD 250 billion, which is more than the GDP of 150 individual countries in the world.

Russian inventions include transformer, helicopter, video-tape recorder, synthetic rubber, grain harvester, electrical telegraph, arc welding, radiator, powdered milk and thousands of other things without which life would be very different today.

Russia is not a shit hole ur masters made u believe

Other EU countries like Germany continues to buy oil and gas from Russia and yet no sanctions from US. But when a developing country from Africa, Asia or Centra America tries to buy from Russia, US would threaten them with sanctions.

The funny thing here is America that don't want a huge country like India to buy Russia's oil can't provide alternative for them.

America that is struggling with her own supply after banning Russian oil want India and other countries to suffer the same fate. Thumbs up to India for ignoring them.

India has always been in good terms with Russia, United States should stop acting like teenage girl their sanctions are getting weaker and weaker as countries look for ways to bypass them especially the petrodollar , they should be building relationships not spoil them,they should learn from China and act cunning.

Whether India buys or does not buy Russian oil, the Russian economy is already in trouble. Half of those sanctions are enough to cripple any country. Do you know what it means when commercial airlines can not fly to your country?

Biden has said the sanctions will not be permanent but will depend on Russia putting an end to its invasion of Ukraine. That, however, won't stop Putin.

It is strategic for the west. This means additional 3 million barrels is freed up in the world market ( which would been purchased by India) to bring the skyrocketing price of crude down. More supply lower price.

We should be talking about what currency was used for the transaction. As long as it wasn’t dollars, then it makes little or no sense in the present sanction situation.
A win win for the west.

For USA, you must join their side, be enemies with their enemies or you get sanctioned.
Imagine Hillary Clinton saying that it is a war crime to invade another sovereign nation. Was Libya not Sovereign? What about when they bombed belgrade or Syria?
The Russian invasion is totally abhorrent and uncalled for, but US should stop the hypocrisy.

India is not part of NATO, India will do what is best for India- If you go market and you see something what you looking for a very cheap price , you must buy now. The war will continue but I believe both Russia and Ukraine are losing the war- war will be a stalemate-. Ukraine will build up and everyone will go back and mind their business. Putin might not be in power for long with the sanctions are affecting common Russians daily and some big billionaire are losing money, I expect some changes in the future. There are some resistance to Putin rule in Russia, so I expect the resistance to keep growing. It is better to have more friends than enemies, and for the case of Putin, He has more enemies than friends. First of all , every Ukraine will fight till the last drop of blood- They are not going to give up easily , so the war will continue. Russia has won some battle and Ukraine has won some battle. Second of all, Putin is bad for businesses in Russia generally , so I do not expect the oligarch to be patient with Putin. Thirdly, Putin has enemies in the West and many countries and even within Russia,.

Guy can u just research before talking, US can't sanction China, Trump did that, wanting China to pay for more and its backfired, US farmers were heavily losing, China produces 80% of the world goods and services, if US sanctions China, the hyper inflation that will hit the world will be x2 that is going on becos of Russia

Russia is too big and strategic a country to isolate. No matter how much support you galvanize against them, you can never totally isolate them.

The first mistake that the guys at the white house made was treating Russia like some small country on the map with little to no strategic resource of importance, like North Korea.
