US President Donald Trump has threatened India with an "unspecified penalty" over its military and trade ties with Russia, as part of his push for a ceasefire in Ukraine.
The sanctions would be in addition to the 25% tariffs announced by the president this week, which are due to come into effect on 1 August.
India is the largest importer of Russian arms worldwide, which make up more than half its military equipment.
Russia is also India’s top oil supplier, accounting for 35% of overall supplies in 2025.
The Security Brief’s Mikey Kay, a former Senior Officer in the British Military, explains the nature of the military relationship between the two countries – and looks at the role other nations are playing in Russia’s arms arsenal.
