With Saudi Arabia giving cold shoulder to its plea for easing production controls, India said it will buy oil from any country that will give it at cheaper rates. Oil Minister Dharmendra Pradhan termed Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman asking India to use oil it bought at rock bottom rates last year instead of egging producers to raise output to cool prices as an "undiplomatic answer" by a "close friend".
