Russia's $400 billion gas deal with China-II: India yet to find a way to reap the energy dividend with Russia

India, the world fourth largest oil consumer, has to forge a stronger energy relationship with Russia, the world’s single largest exporter of energy for more than a decade.
8Western sanctions have played an important role in recalibrating Russia's global energy outlook.

8Both the Indian government and companies such as OVL will have to work hard to reap the energy dividend from Russia.
