There is no clearer a policy than that spelled out by MEA with regard to oil purchases. In fact going by recent reports RIL purchased Venezuelan crude at discounts of upwards of 6 USD per barrel, a figure similar to one when Russia was able to provide. In such a scenario, whatever secures purchase of value is a well articulated position by MEA. This is the only way to stay non aligned to the googlies of geopolitics being thrown at India by various powerful hegemons. As for Mr Tharoor it seems a mere 2 hour long meeting with Mr. Know-it- All prince was enough to perform a reset of the immense intellect he holds but has been forced to tone it down. Sad.
