A wave of warnings from US officials, including Senator Lindsey Graham, signals that the US is prepared to impose massive tariffs—up to 100%—on countries like India, China, and Brazil if they continue importing Russian oil. The move is part of a broader strategy to cut off Russia's financial lifelines amid the ongoing Ukraine war, with bipartisan support in Congress and calls for European allies to join in secondary sanctions. India and China have pushed back, citing double standards and emphasizing their own energy security needs, while NATO leaders have also urged these countries to pressure Russia for peace. Despite the threats, India remains unfazed, stating it can secure oil from alternative sources if necessary. The escalating rhetoric highlights growing geopolitical tensions and the risk of global economic fallout from secondary sanctions.
