Poland Backs India Amid US Tariff Threat Over Russian Oil Cuts

• Poland's Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski expressed satisfaction with India's reduced Russian oil imports, calling it a move against "Putin's war machine."
• Sikorski's remarks came during the first India-Weimar format meeting, focusing on India-EU ties, Indo-Pacific challenges, and the Ukraine conflict.
• US President Donald Trump has "greenlit" a bipartisan Russia sanctions bill, potentially allowing tariffs up to 500% on countries buying Russian oil or uranium.
• Trump previously imposed 50% tariffs on Indian imports and warned of further escalation, stating PM Modi "knew I was not happy."
• India maintains its energy purchases, including Russian oil, are guided by national interest and energy security, rejecting claims of promising to stop.
