Putin to visit India as PM Modi counters Trump’s tariffs threat over Russian Oil|India-Russia Vs U.S

Indian NSA Ajit Doval has confirmed that Russian President Vladimir Putin will be visiting India later this year. This visit marks a pivotal moment in geopolitics, coming just as U.S.-India relations sour over Trump’s harsh new tariffs. Following Washington's backlash against New Delhi’s Russian oil imports, India has pushed back, defending its energy policy. Putin’s trip signals Moscow’s commitment to deeper strategic ties. As Trump threatens secondary sanctions, India and Russia are visibly aligning to counter U.S. pressure, reshaping alliances in a rapidly polarizing global order. #PutinInIndia #IndiaRussia #TrumpTariffs #Geopolitics #USIndiaTensions #RussianOil #StrategicPartnership #ModiPutin #GlobalRealignment #SecondarySanctions #NewDelhi #VladimirPutin #PMModi #Trump #AjitDoval #TradeWar #IndiaForeignPolicy #PutinVisit #MoscowDelhiAxis #USPressure #EnergySecurity #IndiaStandsFirm #DiplomaticCrisis #GlobalAlliances #BreakingNews #TrumpVsIndia #InternationalPolitics #PutinModiMeet #IndoRussianTies #TariffWar #WashingtonPressure #USIndiaSplit Also Read Trump Tariffs By Country: A Complete List of New and Existing Rates After US Slapped 50% On India :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-tariffs-by-country-a-complete-list-of-new-and-existing-rates-011-7822615.html?ref=DMDesc Trump-Modi, Negotiate Like Real Friends: Singer Mary Millben's Advice To India-US Amid Tariff Threat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-modi-negotiate-like-real-friends-singer-mary-millbens-advice-to-india-us-amid-tariff-threat-7821507.html?ref=DMDesc Don't Know Anything About It: Trump On India's Claims On US Buying Russian Chemicals, Fertilizers :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/dont-know-anything-about-it-trump-on-indias-claims-on-us-buying-russian-chemicals-fertilizers-7821499.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~
