The US authorities have appealed to European countries to impose sanctions against India similar to the American ones.
According to the Axios portal, this includes a complete ban on oil and gas imports, as well as the introduction of additional duties by the EU on goods from India and China.
Washington believes that EU leaders publicly support the efforts of the head of the US administration, Donald Trump, to resolve the conflict in Ukraine, while secretly trying to “negate” the results of the Russia-US summit in Alaska.
“The Europeans cannot prolong this war and justify unreasonable expectations, while at the same time counting on America to bear the costs,” a senior White House official said in the publication.
Earlier, US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant demanded that the EU “shut up or act” on the issue of imposing sanctions.
