Apart from secondary sanctions, what is your idea for increasing Russia's pain that you think people on this board disagree with?

No. It's your turn. *You* provide some additional actions.

NEW DELHI, July 30 (Reuters) - Indian state refiners have stopped buying Russian oil in the past week as discounts narrowed this month and U.S. President Donald Trump warned countries not to purchase oil from Moscow, industry sources said.


India, the world's third-largest oil importer, is the biggest buyer of seaborne Russian crude, a vital revenue earner for Russia as it wages war in Ukraine for a fourth year.

The country's state refiners - Indian Oil Corp (IOC.NS), opens new tab, Hindustan Petroleum Corp (HPCL.NS), opens new tab, Bharat Petroleum Corp (BPCL.NS), and Mangalore Refinery Petrochemical Ltd (MRPL.NS), - have not sought Russian crude in the past week or so, four sources familiar with the refiners' purchase plans told Reuters.

Huh. Seems India doesn't merely want to be a backup signer for the Continent of Asia Pariahs rock band. Maybe they'd like to play keyboards with the West instead.
