Exxon devotes itself to Putin so as to get more Russian oil money, all with Trump's backing, and regardless of the klling effects of their deal on Ukrainians. Nasty. Meanwhile, Trump uses India's purchases of Russian oil - so harmful to Ukraine, he says! - as a pretext to up the US tariff to 50% on all India's imports into the USA, starting today. A 50% tariff is higher than for China. Nonsensical.
As to where he might have been influenced by other countries, look towards social gaming. Especially any strategy war or military games, they like to mix up players from different countries because it creates teams faster, the different countries tend to have friction or conflict in the main chat. That creates opposition to go against. These are necessary for the game to be successful. You get different players from other countries that are stragglers and team up with larger groups. This often leads to guild chat rooms outside of the game. Depending on the countries different platforms are used, discord is popular because Russia, china and the US players can access the app. Line is another popular one. I’m sure there are others today that I’m not familiar with. That’s where I’ve had the only social interaction with people in different countries regularly.
