Is India’s position on Russia affecting its relationship with the U.S.? | The Hindu Parley podcast

While India has explained its stand on the war and its ties with Russia, the U.S. remains ‘disappointed’

Last week, India’s strategic partner, the United States, warned of consequences for any country, including India, which conducts local currency transactions through Russia’s central bank or constructs a payment mechanism that subverts or circumvents the U.S.’s sanctions against Russia.

Guests: Syed Akbaruddin, Dean of the Kautilya School of Public Policy and was India’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations; Lisa Curtis, Senior Fellow and Director of the Indo-Pacific Security Program at the Center for a New American Security and was with the U.S. White House as Senior Director at the National Security Council.
