President Trump Calls Out India and Russia Over their Ties with Beijing

By The Blog Source

President Donald Trump remarked on Friday that Russia and India seem to be "lost" to China after their meeting on Monday at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit in China.

On Truth Social, Trump shared a picture of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Indian President Narendra Modi strolling together. It seems that China has overtaken both Russia and India. I hope their future together is filled with success and longevity.

Trump's remarks coincide with his government imposing high tariffs of fifty percent on Indian commodities, which went into place only days prior to the summit, in retaliation for India's ongoing purchases of Russian oil.

Noting that Russia received €1.1 billion from EU gasoline purchases in a single year, Trump also urged European leaders on Thursday to stop importing Russian oil and put more economic pressure on Beijing.

Following a high-profile conference in China earlier this week that brought together leaders of the three main countries, President Donald Trump is criticizing Russia and India for their growing relations with Beijing. Trump shared a picture of Chinese President Xi Jinping, Russian President Vladimir Putin, and Indian President Narendra Modi strolling together at Monday's Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit on Truth Social on Friday. It seems that China has eclipsed both Russia and India. I hope their future together is filled with success and longevity. Trump wrote.

A week of growing trade tensions between Washington and New Delhi preceded the conference. Last week, President Trump imposed a 50% tax on Indian imports in response to India's ongoing purchases of Russian oil. Indian Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal stated on Tuesday that his nation is dedicated to striking a deal with the United States, although the tariffs put further strain on the relationship. As our two presidents talked in February, Goyal told reporters, "I do hope that things will get back on track soon and that we will conclude a bilateral trade agreement by autumn, November, or so."

Meanwhile, Trump has stated unequivocally that his administration is only just starting to hammer down on Russia's oil earnings. He described the levies on Wednesday as "the first phase of potential penalties" aimed at stifling Moscow's energy earnings, which he has accused of supporting Russia's military effort in Ukraine.

Trump participated in a conference call with European leaders on Thursday to talk about their ongoing energy imports from Russia. Trump urged European partners to cease purchasing Russian gasoline and adopt a tougher posture toward China, which has contributed to the financing of Russia's conflict, according to a White House official who spoke to Breitbart News. The official stated that President Macron and European leaders summoned President Trump to the "Coalition of the Willing" meeting. Given that Russia got €1.1 billion in fuel sales from the EU in a single year, President Trump underlined that Europe must cease buying Russian oil, which is financing the conflict. The president also underlined the need for European countries to exert economic pressure on China to stop it from supporting Russia's military activities.

Trump's comments demonstrate the administration's growing hostility toward Beijing and Moscow. Although India has always maintained a balance in its ties with the US, China, and Russia, the summit's optics and Trump's direct warning highlight widening geopolitical fault lines as Washington increases energy restrictions, tariffs, and economic pressure on America's main enemies.
