Factbox-Three years into war, US and Europe keep billions in trade with Russia

(Reuters) -Three years after Russian President Vladimir Putin launched his full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the United States and European Union still import billions of euros worth of Russian energy and commodities, ranging from liquefied natural gas to enriched uranium. India this week lashed out at what it called Western double standards, after facing renewed threats from U.S. President Donald Trump over its surging purchases of Russian crude oil. Here are the main commercial ties that the U.S., Europe, and India maintain with Russia, and their evolution over the last four years: EUROPE IMPORTS FROM RUSSIA Since the beginning of the war, trade between the EU and Russia has drastically contracted due to EU sanctions and import restrictions on some products. Imports from Russia fell by 86% from the first quarter of 2022 through the first quarter of this year, according to the latest data from Eurostat. Imports of goods from Russia in the first quarter of 2025 totaled 8.74 billion euros ($10.11 billion), down from 30.58 billion euros four years earlier. Since January 2022, the EU has imported 297 billion euros' worth of Russian goods. The EU, however, continues to purchase oil, nickel, natural gas, fertilizer, iron, and steel from Russia. * OIL Four years ago, Russia was the largest supplier of petroleum products to the EU, but the EU ban on maritime imports of Russian crude oil reduced its share to 2.01% in 2025 from 28.74% in 2021. Oil imports fell to 1.48 billion euros in the first quarter of 2025 from 14.06 billion euros four years ago. * NATURAL GAS Russia's share in natural gas plummeted to 17% in the first quarter of 2025 from 48% in 2021's first quarter. * IRON AND STEEL Russia's share in non-EU iron and steel imports slumped to 7.71% in the first quarter of 2025 from 18.28% four years ago. * FERTILIZERS As for fertilizers, a sector in which the European Parliament voted in May to impose prohibitive tariffs, Russia remained, as of the first quarter of 2025, the largest exporter to the European Union. Its share fell slightly from 28.15% to 25.62% in the last four years. INDIA IMPORTS FROM RUSSIA In contrast to Europe, India's imports from Moscow surged to $65.7 billion in 2024 from $8.25 billion in 2021, data from the Indian Commerce Ministry website showed. * OIL Crude oil has been the biggest driver of the growth in India's imports from Russia, jumping to $52.2 billion in 2024 from $2.31 billion in 2021. * COAL PRODUCTS India's imports of coal and coal-related products from Russia surged to $3.5 billion from $1.12 billion in 2021. * FERTILIZERS India's fertilizer imports from Russia rose to $1.67 billion in 2024 from $483 million in 2021. U.S. IMPORTS FROM RUSSIA U.S. imports from Russia fell to $2.50 billion in the first half of 2025 from $14.14 billion four years earlier, according to U.S. Census Bureau and U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis data. Since January 2022, the U.S. has imported $24.51 billion of Russian goods. * FERTILIZERS Last year, the U.S. imported around $1.27 billion of Russian fertilizers, up slightly from $1.14 billion in 2021. * URANIUM, PLUTONIUM The U.S. imported enriched uranium and plutonium from Russia worth around $624 million in 2024, down from $646 million in 2021. * PALLADIUM Russia exported palladium to the United States for around $878 million in 2024, down from $1.59 billion in 2021.

Trump Says He's Readying More Tariffs on Russian Energy Buyers

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump suggested he would impose increased tariffs on additional countries buying energy from Russia — including China — after saying earlier Tuesday that he would raise levies on Indian exports within 24 hours. Mayor Asked to Explain $1.4 Billion of Wasted Johannesburg Funds PATH Train Service Resumes After Fire at Jersey City Station All Hail the Humble Speed Hump 'We'll be doing quite a bit of that,' Trump said when asked if he would follow through on a previous threat to impose tariffs on additional countries, including China. 'We'll see what happens over the next fairly short period of time.' Trump also claimed that he 'never said a percentage' that he would impose on Russian trading partners. Earlier this month, Trump told reporters he planned to do 'very severe tariffs if we don't have a deal in 50 days, tariffs at about 100%.' That rhetorical retreat suggests Trump may not intend to follow through on the full extent his previous threats. 'We have a meeting with Russia tomorrow,' Trump said. 'We're going to see what happens. We'll make that determination at that time.' US special envoy Steve Witkoff is expected to travel to Russia for meetings this week with Russian officials, ahead of Trump's Aug. 8 deadline for Moscow to reach a truce with Ukraine. Ukraine's allies have said energy purchases by countries, including China and India, have helped to prop up Russian leader Vladimir Putin's economy and undercut pressure on Moscow to end a war that is now in its fourth year. In an interview with CNBC earlier Tuesday, Trump indicated he would push forward with escalated tariffs on India in particular. 'We settled on 25% but I think I'm going to raise that very substantially over the next 24 hours, because they're buying Russian oil,' Trump said. 'They're fueling the war machine. And if they're going to do that, then I'm not going to be happy.' At the same time, Trump said he was 'getting very close to a deal' with China to extend the trade truce that saw the two countries agree to reduce tit-for-tat tariff hikes and ease export restrictions on rare earth magnets and certain technologies.

By , Naomi Ng, and K Oanh Ha Save Never miss an episode. Follow The Big Take Asia podcast today. President Trump has been cranking up the pressure on India, a country the US has courted as a strategic counterweight against China. Last week, Trump announced a 25% tariff on the country, a higher rate than many other major economies in Asia. But he didn't stop there. This week, he's threatened to raise the levy even higher. His message to India is clear: Stop buying Russian oil.
