Rubio Warns India on Russia-Iran Economic Ties as Sanctions Bill Bites
🪙 NEW DELHI — India is Tehran's last major oil buyer; Rubio just made that expensive. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: India absorbs discounted Iranian crude outside Western banking — secondary sanctions are Washington's lever to close that gap. Jaishankar's pushback signals New Delhi won't quietly comply. If enforced, Indian refiners lose Iranian supply mid-conflict, tightening global oil markets further. This squeezes Tehran's revenue exactly when UNGA deal talks are live.
