Despite growing pressure from the Donald Trump administration and the European unx, India continues to get crude oil from Russia. Multiple tankers offloaded millions of barrels of Russian crude at Indian refineries during the weekend, indicating that these closely monitored deliveries continue uninterrupted.
According to a Bloomberg report, three Aframax vessels - the Achilles, Elyte and Horae - discharged approximately 2.2 million barrels of Russian Urals crude to private Indian refiners Nayara Energy Ltd and Reliance Industries Ltd during the weekend following a brief delay.
India continues to foster its robust ties with Russia, which has remained a key defence equipment provider dating back to the Cold War period. The Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal described these ties on Friday as a "steady and time-tested partnership."
The hard US stance, coupled with an unexpected 25% duty on Indian exports to America, has disrupted the procurement strategies of both private and government-owned refineries. However, Indian authorities have not instructed refiners to discontinue Russian crude imports, sources told Bloomberg
Reliance maintains a long-term agreement with Russian oil giant Rosneft PJSC. India's continued procurement of discounted Russian oil, particularly as a big buyer of Moscow's maritime oil exports, has consistently troubled the United States and its Western partners. Recent developments have intensified this attention. 

    尽管面临唐纳德·特朗普政府和欧盟日益增长的压力,印度仍在继续进口俄罗斯原油。多艘油轮在周末向印度炼油厂卸下了数百万桶俄罗斯原油,显示这些备受密切监控的交付依然未受干扰。
据彭博社报道,三艘阿芙拉型油轮在经历短暂延误后,于周末向印度私营炼油企业奈亚拉能源公司和信实工业有限公司卸下了大约 220 万桶俄罗斯乌拉尔原油。
    印度继续巩固与俄罗斯的紧密关系。俄罗斯自冷战时期起便是印度重要的国防装备供应国。印度外交部发言人 兰迪尔·贾伊斯瓦尔上周五将这种关系形容为“稳固而经得起时间考验的伙伴关系”
    美国的强硬立场,再加上对印度出口至美国商品意外征收的 25% 关税,已经打乱了印度私人和国有炼油厂的采购策略。然而,据彭博社消息人士透露,印度当局并未要求炼油企业停止进口俄罗斯原油。
    印度信实工业与俄罗斯石油巨头 俄罗斯国家石油公司保持着长期协议。印度持续采购打折的俄罗斯原油,尤其作为莫斯科海运石油出口的重要买家,这一举动长期以来令美国及其西方伙伴不满。
