New Delhi: October 5, 2026: ANI: There is no “Lindsay Graham bill” in Europe that could determine India’s trade negotiations with the European Union, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said while speaking at the Munich Leaders meeting, asserting that discussions over India’s strategic autonomy and its procurement of Russian oil were not a deciding factor in the trade talks. “In Europe, as much as I understand till today, there is no Lindsey Graham bill,” Sitharaman said when asked whether India’s procurement of Russian oil had emerged as a problem area during negotiations with European partners. “I don’t think there was a card on the table saying hey this is going to determine what we do next in the negotiation.” Sitharaman said several issues are discussed formally and informally before and after trade negotiations, but indicated that the issue of Russian oil was not a determining condition in the discussions with Europe.
