Trade ties with Ukraine, Mercosur can shield EU from US tariffs, says agriculture Commissioner
Strengthening trade relations with Ukraine and Mercosur countries could prove beneficial for Europe in the event of a trade war with the United States, EU Agriculture Commissioner Christophe Hansen told Euronews.
India has doubled down on its decision to continue purchasing discounted Russian crude oil despite U.S. President Donald Trump's remarks suggesting New Delhi may halt such imports. Indian state-owned refiners reaffirmed that sourcing oil from Russia remains a strategic, price-driven choice essential for the country’s energy security, given its 85% crude import dependence. Officials emphasized that Russian oil is not under international sanctions and purchases comply with the G7/EU price cap mechanism, ensuring global markets remain liquid and prices stable. Sources argue that India's imports prevented oil prices from soaring above the March 2022 peak of $137 a barrel amid OPEC+ cuts. Meanwhile, reports of suspended purchases were dismissed, with officials highlighting the EU’s own high intake of Russian LNG. India insists its decisions are guided by national interest while contributing positively to global energy stability, even as Washington hints at possible penalties.

Tensions between Washington and Moscow are spiraling after U.S. President Donald Trump ordered the deployment of two nuclear submarines near Russian waters in response to Dmitry Medvedev’s chilling “dead hand” threat. The move has fueled fears of World War 3, despite experts calling it “posturing.” A viral video claiming Russian Borei-class submarines armed with Bulava missiles are stationed off the U.S. coast has added to the panic, though fact-checkers confirmed the footage is from 2018. Trump defended his decision on Truth Social, warning that “words are important and can have unintended consequences.” Analysts suggest the deployment signals strength but does not escalate nuclear confrontation. The standoff comes as Trump grows increasingly frustrated with Vladimir Putin’s refusal to negotiate a Ukraine ceasefire, with both nations engaging in nuclear saber-rattling unseen since the Cold War.
