India accuses EU, US of double standard over Russian trade
India has sharply criticised the US and the European Union, saying it is being unfairly singled out by them over its Russian oil purchases when they both trade extensively with Moscow despite the war in Ukraine. India's criticism followed a renewed threat by US President Donald Trump on Monday to raise tariffs on goods from India over its Russian oil purchases, deepening the trade rift between the two countries. In a rare show of unity, Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the main opposition Congress on Tuesday condemned Trump's repeated criticism of New Delhi. India's Foreign Ministry said in a statement issued late on Monday that "it is revealing that the very nations criticising India are themselves indulging in trade with Russia". The US embassy and the EU's delegation in New Delhi did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Both the US and EU have sharply scaled back their trade ties with Russia since it launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. In 2021, Russia was the EU's fifth-largest trading partner, with goods exchange worth 258 billion euros, according to the EU executive European Commission. The sudden rift between India and the US has been deepening since July 31, when Trump announced a 25% tariff on Indian goods being shipped to the US and for the first time threatened unspecified penalties for buying Russian oil. India is one of the biggest buyers of crude from Russia, importing about 1.75 million barrels per day from January to June this year, up 1% from a year ago. India has said it does not support "unilateral sanctions" by the EU. Trade experts say Trump's tariff could badly hurt India's economy. Ajay Srivastava of the New Delhi-based Global Trade Research Initiative said he expected Indian goods exports to the US to fall 30% in the current fiscal year ending March 31, to 60.6 billion dollars from 86.5 billion dollars in the 2025 fiscal year. India's equity benchmarks fell after Trump's renewed threat of harsh tariffs on goods from India. Manish Tewari, a member of parliament and Congress leader, said Trump's "disparaging remarks hurt the dignity and self-respect of Indians". "The time has come to call out this constant bullying and hectoring," he added. BJP Vice President Baijayant Jay Panda quoted Henry Kissinger - the most powerful US diplomat of the Cold War era - in a post on X: "To be an enemy of America can be dangerous, but to be a friend is fatal."

US Coast Guard: OceanGate's flawed practices caused Titan sub tragedy
OceanGate's "critically flawed" safety practices contributed to a "preventable" implosion killing five people aboard its Titan submersible, according to a US Coast Guard report released Tuesday. The submersible imploded 90 minutes into a dive to the Titanic wreckage on 18 June 2023, killing CEO Stockton Rush and four passengers including a British-Pakistani father and son. The report identified eight primary factors contributing to the fatal implosion, including inadequate design and testing processes, insufficient data analysis and the use of carbon fibre construction, which rendered the craft incapable of withstanding deep-sea pressure. The report also found a "toxic workplace environment" at OceanGate where dismissal was routinely used as a means to prevent staff from speaking out about safety concerns. In addition to the eight primary factors for the tragedy, the report listed a further four that could have contributed. The coastguard calls OceanGate's operational practices "critically flawed" and highlights "glaring disparities between their written safety protocols and their actual practices." The report also says that OceanGate lacked comprehensive regulations for the oversight of its submersibles. Arguably the most damning finding in the report is OceanGate using "intimidation tactics" to avoid regulatory scrutiny. "By strategically creating and exploiting regulatory confusion and oversight challenges, OceanGate was ultimately able to operate Titan completely outside of the established deep-sea protocols," the report says. Jason Neubauer, with the Marine Board of Investigation, said that the findings will help prevent future tragedies. "There is a need for stronger oversight and clear options for operators who are exploring new concepts outside of the existing regulatory framework," he said in a statement. The family of two of the passengers who were killed on the Titan sub have called for tougher regulation following the publication of the coastguard's report. British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his 19-year-old son Suleman were two of the three customers killed when Titan imploded. "No report can alter the heartbreaking outcome, nor fill the immeasurable void left by two cherished members of our family," a statement from the family said. "We believe that accountability and regulatory change must follow such a catastrophic Shahzada and Suleman's legacy can be a catalyst for regulatory change that helps prevent such a loss from ever happening again, it will bring us some measure of peace." Who else was on board? In addition to the Dawoods and OceanGate's CEO Rush, British adventurer Hamish Harding who ran the Dubai-based private jet dealership Action Aviation was among those killed. Rounding out the five-person crew was former French submariner and Titanic expert Paul-Henry Nargeolet. OceanGate began taking passengers to the wreck of the Titanic in 2021, charging $250,000 (€216,000) per person for the trip. Following the Titan implosion on 18 June 2023, the company's office was closed on 21 June and by 6 July the company had ceased all operations.
