US Sanctions 18 Indian Firms for Supplying Russia Amid Ukraine Conflict

India asserts no violation of domestic laws as US targets entities aiding Russia's military-industrial base.

The US sanctioned nearly 400 entities, including 18 Indian companies, for supporting Russia's military efforts in Ukraine.
Indian firms are accused of shipping electronic, engineering, and aviation components to Russia, but India claims these actions comply with its laws.
The Indian Ministry of External Affairs is engaging with US authorities to address concerns and clarify the sanctions' implications.
Many affected Indian companies report minimal impact due to their focus on Russian markets and lack of US business ties.
The US sanctions aim to disrupt global networks aiding Russia's war capabilities, targeting entities across multiple countries.
