Global Tensions ka Impact!
Dekho bhai, duniya mein jo ye tensions chal rahi hai na, khaas kar West Asia mein ladai ki wajah se, energy markets mein gadbad ho rahi hai. Isi wajah se Russia ne India ko steady tarike se zyada oil aur liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply karne ka plan banaya hai. Russia ke First Deputy Chairman Denis Manturov ne bola ki unki companies India ki badhti energy needs poori karne ke liye ready hain.
India ki Energy Security ka Funda
Ye India ke liye bahut important hai kyunki India apna lagbhag 88-89% crude oil bahar se mangata hai aur apni energy security ko aur accha karna chahta hai. Russia ab India ka ek major energy partner ban gaya hai, FY2023-24 mein unka share India ke crude oil imports mein 35.9% tak pahunch gaya hai. Isse India ko Middle East ke traditional sources ke alawa ek solid backup mil gaya hai. Haan, LNG export deal par bhi baat chal rahi hai.
Sirf Energy hi nahi, aur bhi bahut kuch!
Energy ke alawa, Russia India ko mineral fertilizers bhi 40% zyada dega end of 2025 tak. Mineral fertilizers toh Russia ke total chemical exports ka 90% hain India ko, aur ye exports 66.2% badh gaye hain. Nuclear energy mein bhi cooperation chal raha hai, Kudankulam Nuclear Power Plant (KKNPP) ke new units par kaam schedule par hai.
Naye Fields mein Partnership
Energy aur agriculture ke saath saath, dono countries critical minerals, space, education aur innovation jaise sectors mein bhi saath kaam karne par discuss kar rahe hain. Russia ke paas minerals ka bada reserve hai aur India ki demand badh rahi hai.
Challenges aur Future
Abhi bhi India ka imports par reliance ek vulnerability hai. Aur Russia ke saath trade deficit bhi ek challenge hai. Analysts India ko caution kar rahe hain, especially abhi ke volatile global conditions mein. Lekin overall, dono deshon ka partnership aur mazboot ho raha hai, aur unka target hai bilateral trade $100 billion tak pahunchane ka. Russia 5.5% import duty on fertilizers ko address karne par bhi kaam kar raha hai.
