14 tankers with oil from the Russian Federation have been waiting for shipment from India for several weeks. All because of problems with payment - the Indian side refuses to pay for oil in dollars for fear of falling under US sanctions. They offer to pay in rupees, which the Russian side no longer agrees to.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
