The United States, led by Senator Lindsey Graham and supported by the Trump administration, is warning countries like India, China, and Brazil of severe economic consequences if they continue importing Russian oil. Proposed measures include imposing 100% or even 500% tariffs on goods from these nations, aiming to cut off financial support to Russia amid its war in Ukraine. The US is also urging European allies to join in secondary sanctions, increasing pressure on Russia's trading partners. India and China have pushed back, citing energy security needs and accusing the West of double standards, while China rejects the effectiveness of such sanctions. The escalating rhetoric signals a potential shift toward more aggressive economic warfare targeting Russia's global oil trade.
