🛢🇷🇺 West’s sanctions ‘failed miserably’ against Russia’s oil trade

📍 Russia has deep experience in selling its oil “even under the most atrocious Western sanctions,” Dr Mamdouh G. Salameh, an international oil economist and a global energy expert, tells Sputnik.

🟠 He agrees with Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov, who told a briefing for Indian media organized by Sputnik India ahead of President Vladimir Putin’s official visit to India that Russia is successfully ensuring that its buyers have access to reliable supplies of energy products.

🟠 Western sanctions have “failed miserably to make even a small dent on both Russia’s economy and its oil and gas exports,” Dr Salameh says.

🇺🇸 US tariffs against India will be powerless to affect its energy partnership with Russia, he believes, since India’s decisions prioritize its national interests.

💬 “The India-Russian partnership is underpinned by trust, mutual benefits and huge gratitude by India towards Russia which has always stood solidly behind India and aided its struggle for independence since the days of the USSR,” the expert notes.

Key points:

🔶 Putin labeled the attacks on vessels in the Black Sea as piracy.

🔶 Russia will consider response measures against ships belonging to countries that assist Ukraine in conducting such attacks.
