The people who made money on Russian oil are Indians -(assume even if just 3) and those who are hit by US tariffs are also Indians - It's not an issue of pro-Russia Indians vs pro-US Indians. The issue is about the sovereign choice of the Indian state. It's a STATE matter.

रघुराम राजन का सवाल . “हमें सोचना चाहिए कि रुस के (सस्ते) तेल का फ़ायदा किसे मिला और अब अमेरिका के टैरिफ़ का नुक़सान किसे हो रहा है?”. टैरिफ़ से 20 लाख लोगों पर रोज़गार का संकट आ सकता है जबकि सस्ते तेल का फ़ायदा रिलायंस जैसी तेल कंपनियों को हुआ है .

Till now, no one has explained why Sushma Swaraj & PM Modi went to Pakistan in December 2015 or why India underwent demonetisation in November December 2016. Safe to guess there's an India-US angle to this.

Next came a dash for defence deals, digital cash and an unexplained outreach to Pakistan that collapsed like all outreach to Pakistan generally do, followed by the highly controversial demonetisation that came as US poll ended amid expectations that Hillary Clinton was next.

Policies and procedures continued to have space but the biggest issue was the "personal chemistry" between the Indian PM and US President. Check out here:

Few months earlier PM Modi tweeted that he had invited a "friend" to the next 26 January celebrations. Mr. Modi came to power in May 2014 & in previous 8 months he bcame confident that President of the global superpower was his friend. Persons, not institutions were important.

Overnight US was every where- from jet engine to smart city plans, to most importantly our wallets - Uncle Sam became a part of daily life of Indians. What sort of consultation was held before exposing Indian market to such "friendship"? Well, answer is widely known.

Time to revisit 11 years of US policy under Modi govt. Many were surprised by the extent of the India-US relation whn in 2015 Prez Obama came to Hyderabad House. An interesting component was digital cash and mention of BTCA. Read the Joint Statement:

Doing business with the US is like having US visa on passport. It's not the biggest business but helps India access other markets. Trump tariff is a message to the 🌎 to avoid India. Really the worst crisis for post-cold war India.
