India calls out EU and U.S.' trade with Russia after Trump threatens steeper tariffs on New Delhi
India said it was is being "targeted" by the U.S. and the European Union over its imports of Russian oil after U.S. President Donald Trump in an overnight social media post threatened New Delhi with much steeper tariffs. India began importing oil from Russia only after traditional supplies were diverted to Europe following the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine war in 2022, the country's foreign ministry said in a statement late Monday. The ministry called out the EU and the U.S. saying, "it is revealing that the very nations criticizing India are themselves indulging in trade with Russia. Unlike our case, such trade is not even a vital national compulsion [for them]." The EU's bilateral trade with Russia stood at 67.5 billion euros ($78.1 billion) in 2024, while its services trade in 2023 was at 17.2 billion euros, according to European Commission data. Citing that data, India said the bloc's trade was "significantly more" than India's total trade with Russia. Data from the Indian embassy in Moscow showed bilateral trade between New Delhi and Moscow reached a record $68.7 billion for the year ended March 2025, nearly 5.8 times higher than the pre-pandemic trade of $10.1 billion. The EU, meanwhile, was Russia's third-biggest trade partner in 2024, accounting for 38.4% of the bloc's total trade with the country, sliding from being Moscow's top partner in 2020. EU's goods trade with Russia dropped to 67.5 billion euros in 2024 from 257.5 billion euros in 2021. India's response comes after Trump threatened on Monday that he would be "substantially raising" the tariffs on India, although he did not specify the level of the higher tariffs. The U.S. president had threatened a 25% duty on Indian exports, as well as an unspecified "penalty" last week. He also accused India of buying discounted Russian oil and "selling it on the Open Market for big profits." Russia became the leading oil supplier to India since the war in Ukraine began, increasing imports from just under 100,000 barrels per day before the invasion, or a 2.5% of its total imports, to more than 1.8 million barrels per day in 2023, or 39%, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration's report earlier this year. "The United States at that time actively encouraged such imports by India for strengthening global energy markets stability," the country said in its statement. According to the International Energy Agency, 70% of Russian crude was exported to India in 2024. India said oil imports were meant to ensure predictable and affordable energy costs to the Indian consumer. India has in the past defended its oil purchases from Russia, with Hardeep Singh Puri, the country's energy minister, saying in an interview last month with CNBC that New Delhi helped stabilize global energy prices and was encouraged by the U.S. to do so. "If people or countries had stopped buying at that stage, the price of oil would have gone up to 130 dollars a barrel. That was a situation in which we were advised, including by our friends in the United States, to please buy Russian oil, but within the price cap," Puri said. India also took aim at the U.S, saying the country continues to import uranium hexafluoride for its nuclear industry, palladium for the electric-vehicle industry, as well as fertilizers and chemicals. U.S. bilateral trade with Russia in 2024 stood at $5.2 billion, compared with nearly $36 billion in 2021, government data showed. The U.S. has not imposed any "reciprocal tariffs" on Russia. "In this background, the targeting of India is unjustified and unreasonable. Like any major economy, India will take all necessary measures to safeguard its national interests and economic security," New Delhi said.

Trump admin live updates: GOP megabill could add $4.1T to the debt, CBO says
Previously, the CBO said the bill would add $3.4 trillion to the deficit. 2:25 President Donald Trump is back to Washington, where he says he's expecting this week to hire a new commissioner for the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The president's envoy is expected to travel this week to Russia, as the White House continues pushing for negotiations to end Moscow's war in Ukraine. Trump megabill could add $4.1T to deficit over next decade, new analysis states A new analysis from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office said President Donald Trump's sweeping tax cut and spending bill passed last month will create $718 billion in additional debt-service costs, bringing the law's overall debt projection to $4.1 trillion over 10 years. "As a result, and net of any changes in borrowing for federal credit programs, the agency estimates that the legislation will increase debt held by the public at the end of 2034 by 9.5 percentage points relative to CBO's January 2025 baseline budgetary projections of gross domestic product (GDP). Other factors, such as administrative actions affecting tariffs and immigration, also have affected deficits and debt since January 2025 and will be reflected in CBO's next baseline," the report stated. < Previously, the CBO said the Senate's final version of Trump's massive policy and tax bill would add $3.4 trillion to the deficit over the next decade. The new analysis released on Monday comes after Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., requested an update on the bill's impact on the debt. -ABC News' Lauren Peller 3 hours and 55 minutes ago India responds to Trump's tariff hike The Indian government responded on Monday after President Donald Trump posted on social media that he will be "substantially raising" tariffs on the nation over its purchases of Russian oil. India's Ministry of External Affairs released a statement detailing why it buys certain commodities from Russia and called the targeting of India "unjustified and unreasonable." "India's imports are meant to ensure predictable and affordable energy costs to the Indian consumer. They are a necessity compelled by global market situation. However, it is revealing that the very nations criticizing India are themselves indulging in trade with Russia. Unlike our case, such trade is not even a vital national compulsion," the ministry said.

They don't care how many people in Ukraine are being killed by the Russian War Machine. Because of this, I will be substantially raising the Tariff paid by India to the USA," Trump wrote. Last week, Trump announced that India will be paying a 25% tariff plus a penalty due to its trade relations with Russia. He hasn't revealed what the penalty would be. His post comes as Trump gave Russia a 10-day deadline, which expires on Friday, to negotiate a ceasefire with Ukraine or else face sanctions.
