WASHINGTON (Reuters) -A top aide to President Donald Trump on Sunday accused India of effectively financing Russia's war in Ukraine by purchasing oil from Moscow, after the U.S. leader escalated pressure on New Delhi to stop buying Russian oil.

(Reuters) -Indian officials have said they would keep purchasing oil from Russia despite the threat of penalties that U.S. President Donald Trump said he would impose, the New York Times reported on Saturday.

There has been no official indication yet if India will stop buying oil from Russia. However, Indian government sources said that India will keep purchasing oil from Russia, and there would be no immediate changes.
