Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, alongside India’s S. Jaishankar, accused the U.S. of weaponizing the dollar and using sanctions as “economic colonialism.” Lavrov warned that even allies are unsafe from Washington’s unpredictability, framing BRICS as a counterbalance to Western dominance. India backed the bloc, stressing it is “not anti-West, just not Western.” With BRICS expanding to include nations like Iran, UAE, and Egypt, the bloc now represents over 40% of the global population, aiming to reshape financial systems, technology, and influence in the Global South.

U.S. President Donald Trump was left scrambling when asked if the United States still imports uranium and fertilisers from Russia—despite threatening India over its purchases of Russian crude oil. “I don’t know anything about it,” Trump said, dodging the question during a press briefing. His remarks came as India lashed out at what it calls Western hypocrisy, citing billions of dollars worth of U.S. imports from Russia, including enriched uranium, palladium, and fertilisers.
Trump has warned of “substantial” tariff hikes on Indian imports, criticizing New Delhi’s Russian energy ties. Former UN Ambassador Nikki Haley also criticised Trump for giving China “a pass” while risking ties with a major ally like India. The contradiction is fuelling diplomatic tensions and raising questions over U.S. trade ethics in the Ukraine war era. India’s response underscores growing frustration in the Global South over selective enforcement of geopolitical pressure.
