U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham, a close ally of President Donald Trump, has once again linked Russia’s war in Ukraine to countries buying Russian oil, singling out India in a fresh warning. Graham urged the U.S. and Europe to aggressively target Moscow’s oil customers, praising Trump’s tariff pressure on India and claiming it forced New Delhi to reduce Russian oil imports. His remarks came after Russia launched one of its deadliest aerial assaults on Ukraine, firing hundreds of drones and missiles at energy infrastructure amid freezing winter temperatures. Graham also renewed calls for the U.S. to provide Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles, arguing that tougher economic and military pressure is needed to force Vladimir Putin to end the war.
