The US has said it is "okay" with India's "distinct" relationship with Russia and suggested it use its "leverage" with Moscow to protect a rules-based international order. Speaking to reporters in Washington before the Security Council met in New York on Friday, State Department Spokesperson Ned Price said that India and Russia shared a relationship and Washington has asked every country with leverage to use it to uphold international norms.
