Summary
Russian oil used to flow into Europe. Now, it's going to India and China instead. <br /> <br />So, could Donald Trump's latest tariff threat against those countries put a squeeze on Russia's economic pipeline and help bring an end to the war in Ukraine? <br /> <br />Despite the warm words and strong handshakes at their Alaskan summit, the Trump White House seems prepared to try new ways to hit Vladimir Putin in the pocket. <br /> <br />But has the failure of the western sanction regime to cripple the Russian economy shown India and China that Trump's trade war bark is worse than his bite? <br />On today's episode, Gareth Barlow speaks to Sky's economics and data editor Ed Conway about how the Russian energy landscape has changed and the potential impact on peace in Ukraine. <br /> <br />Producer: Emily Hulme <br />Editor: Mike Bovill <br />
