New DelhiRussian state news agency TASS: Moscow offers India unlimited oil.
The offer ties India closer to Russia just as Hormuz disruptions squeeze its Gulf supply.
Russian oil supplies to India hit 2.8 million barrels a day in July, over half its imports, according to TASS.
“We are ready to supply India with as much oil as it needs,” said Denis Alipov, Russia’s ambassador to India.
Alipov said Moscow remains open to Indian proposals on ending the Ukraine war, with no proposal yet made.
