UK has imposed 90 new sanctions targeting Russia’s oil export network, including major firms Rosneft, Lukoil and India’s Nayara Energy, which imported about 100 million barrels of Russian crude in 2024.
The measures also hit 44 vessels and 4 Chinese oil terminals, aiming to disrupt Moscow’s global oil trade.
The move heightens geopolitical pressure on Indian refining sector and global energy dynamics.
