Is it democracy, or is it selective imperialism? When the United States urges sovereign nations not to trade with Russia, one would expect that it leads by example. Yet, in 2024–25, the facts paint a different story. 🇺🇸 The U.S. still imports nearly 27% of its enriched uranium from Russia, worth approximately $800 million, which fuels its nuclear reactors. Add another $1.3 billion in Russian fertilizer imports. That’s $3 billion flowing directly into Russia’s economy, even as Washington lectures others on reducing ties. 🇪🇺 Europe, too, hasn’t weaned itself off Russian energy. The EU paid over $23 billion to Russia in 2024 alone for gas and LNG. In June 2025, the bloc imported $1.5 billion worth of Russian LNG, with Russia still supplying 17% of EU LNG and 11% of pipeline gas. Even NATO ally Turkey continues oil trade through TurkStream, openly defying the supposed decoupling agenda. And yet, sovereign nations like India are repeatedly singled out for diversifying their energy imports and engaging in sovereign trade. Why? This isn’t about morality. It’s about control. When some nations bully others into compliance, not through mutual respect but by coercive tariffs, media pressure, or diplomatic arm-twisting, let’s call it what it is: imperialism, not democracy. India, a civilisational state that has withstood colonial subjugation, will not be told who to buy from or how to serve its national interest. A rules-based order cannot mean “rules for you, exceptions for us”. That’s not leadership. That’s duplicity. If the world is serious about fairness, it must reject this pick-and-choose morality. Either standards apply to all or to none. India will trade wisely, not fearfully. And the world must learn to respect choices born not of pressure, but of principle. Further reading: 1.
