New Delhi, Sept. 6 -- India on Friday declined to respond to US President Donald Trump's remarks that New Delhi appeared to have moved closer to Moscow and Beijing, even as it rejected White House trade advisor Peter Navarro's tirade against the country over Russian oil purchases as "inaccurate and misleading". When external affairs ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal was asked about Trump's remarks at a regular weekly media briefing, he replied: "I have no comments to offer on this post at this moment." Jaiswal responded to another question about Navarro's remarks criticising India over Russian oil purchases by saying: "We have seen the inaccurate and misleading statements made by Mr Navarro and obviously reject them." Navarro, who is among the most strident critics of India in the Trump administration, recently said it was a "shame" to see Modi in the company of "authoritarians" such as Xi and Putin at the SCO Summit.
