" the measure was prompted by India’s continued imports of Russian oil"

Europe slowed down Russian oil imports after Russia invaded Ukraine. If India wants to be treated equally, they need to condemn the aggression and reduce importing Russian Oil.

Europe still gets a large chunk of gas from Russia. US gets fertilisers and uranium from Russia. Stop that and then spout your first world bullshit

I said reduce, not stop.

I am talking about gas, not oil

However, the EU saw a rebound in Russian gas imports in 2024

The rebound is a small blip compared to the large reduction.

Look at LNG. It has steadily increased. Even piped gas was on uptrend in 2024.

I already showed the graph above. The tiny bump in shipped LNG imports does not offset the gigantic reduction in overall imports.
