US warns India against aligning with Russia

President Joe Biden's top economic adviser has said that the US warned India against partnering too closely with Russia following the invasion of Ukraine, Qazet.az reports.

“Our message to the Indian government is that the costs and consequences for them of moving into a more explicit strategic alignment with Russia will be significant and long-term,” White House National Economic Council Director Brian Deese said.

“There are certainly areas where we have been disappointed by both China and India’s decisions, in the context of the invasion,” he added.
