India is mulling to accept a Russian offer to purchase its crude oil and other commodities at discounted prices, Reuters reported. The agreement would help the government lower its increasing energy costs, which have increased by 40% this year. Meanwhile, the White House stated that India's acceptance of Russia's offer would not constitute a violation of sanctions by the United States.
