    Russia's "Independent" reported on November 10 that US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen visited India to try to pull the country into the orbit of the United States
    .
    An important bargaining chip for the United States is the commitment of the United States and India to "democracy
    .
    " The U.
    S.
    has become more flexible in that it does not accuse India of refusing to condemn the Russian authorities and buying energy
    from Russia.

    The report pointed out that the main task of the US side is to convince Indians that it is beneficial to set an oil price ceiling, that is, to make India agree to trade terms
    that Russia cannot accept.
    In exchange, the United States promised to expand modern arms supplies and high-tech cooperation
    with India.

    According to Reuters, Yellen will focus more on the idea that the United States and India must interact with each other than on geopolitical factors that complicate relations between the two countries
    , Reuters reported.
    After all, the Americans have previously tried to teach the Indians not to remain neutral and to support Ukraine in its confrontation
    with Russia.
    But this argument did not work
    .

    Indian Foreign Minister Jaishankar Jaishankar who visited Russia earlier said at a press conference in Moscow that Russia is a proven and reliable partner
    .
    India has benefited from India-Russia relations, so the policy of the Indian authorities will not change
    .

    According to Morgan Stanley, India will become the world's third largest economy
    by 2031.
    The Americans apparently realized that it was impossible to get India to make concessions against them, and the U.
    S.
    negotiating tactics changed
    .

    Now, U.
    S.
    officials are talking about what India will benefit from
    setting a "price ceiling.
    " In addition, Yellen will discuss with Indian Finance Minister Nilmala Sitharaman at the traditional U.
    S.
    -India economic and financial dialogue on how India can fulfill its G20 presidency next year
    .
    Discussing this issue, Yellen intends to note that the cessation of Russia's special military operation in Ukraine can have a positive impact
    on the world economy.

    India's purchases of Russian oil have reportedly increased
    sharply since the beginning of the year.
    Prior to February, Russian oil accounted for only 2% of India's oil imports, while in September it had increased to 23%.

    Russia surpasses Iraq and Saudi Arabia
    in terms of oil supplies to India.

    Tatyana Shaomiyan, director of the Center for Indian Studies at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences, said: "India has always taken its own interests as its starting point in international relations
    .
    The interests of India and Russia on the issue of oil prices are the same
    .
    I don't think India will make concessions to the United States
    .
