NATO Chief Threatens Sanctions on India Over Russian Trade | Vantage with Palki Sharma | N18G
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte, visiting Washington, has warned India, China, and Brazil to stop trading with Russia — or face 100% secondary sanctions. After securing Trump’s support for continued arms to Ukraine, Rutte turned his criticism to emerging economies, demanding they pressure Putin into talks. But critics point to Europe’s hypocrisy: last year it spent €22 billion on Russian energy — more than its aid to Ukraine — while preaching sanctions to others. EU still plans to buy Russian oil until 2027. Observers say NATO should focus on its own failings before lecturing others about sovereignty or sanctions.
