Russia is ready to divert oil to India to offset Middle East supply disruptions, with about 9.5 million barrels of Russian crude in vessels near Indian waters and able to arrive within weeks, an industry source with direct knowledge told Reuters.

Dear Karl
Thank you for your wildly ignorant, stupid post. While normally Free Republic is open to idiotic ignorant posts, your offering is so devoid on any contact with a hint of a notion of a clue that only response possible is mocking laughter.
We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors

Yes, Russia is allowed to sell oil, but its trade is heavily restricted by Western sanctions, including a G7-led price cap ($60/barrel for crude). While direct sales to the U.S. and EU are banned or severely limited, Russia continues to export large volumes to countries like China, India, and Turkey
