India has firmly rejected claims by former U.S. President Donald Trump that Prime Minister Narendra Modi promised to halt Russian oil imports — a statement that quickly stirred global headlines.

Officials from New Delhi clarified that no such commitment was made and that there was no recent communication between the two leaders. The Ministry of External Affairs emphasized India’s right to make energy decisions based on national interests and economic security.

Since the onset of the Ukraine war, India has emerged as one of the largest importers of discounted Russian oil — a move that has helped control domestic fuel prices but drawn criticism from Western powers. Washington’s growing pressure to curb those imports has added friction to otherwise strong U.S.–India ties.

This public clarification underscores New Delhi’s stance on strategic autonomy — refusing to let external narratives dictate its policy. Analysts say this episode highlights India’s evolving role as a global power, balancing relations with both Washington and Moscow.
