Davos: In a strong rebuttal to the criticism about India continuing to buy oil from Russia, the Minister for New and Renewable Energy, R K Singh on Wednesday asserted that the Indian import of Russian oil was only a fraction of what was being purchased by Europe. He also said that the West must stop their Russian oil dealings entirely before questioning others.

"India had a conflict with its northern neighbour, did the West do anything about it? Stop importing from it?" he asked.
