Even if the Ukraine War were to end, Putin would never allow NATO countries to act as peacekeepers. NATO members can continue to build castles in the air about being allowed boots on the ground. Russia has every right to target them if they do so as combatants taking part in a war, maybe using an old map story should suffice, LOL.
North Korea now has no qualms about covering up the fact that it is helping Russia openly, while China and India will still be helping Russia economically by buying Russian energy. The USA has no leverage when it comes to China buying Russian energy, a situation that already existed well before the Ukraine War.
Scott Bessant is trying to spin the mantra that India is profiteering from buying Russian oil, which is not going to make any difference as India's live line depends on Russian oil, which it cannot cut off in any way. India already is defying Scott Bessant by telling the USA that it will continue to buy Russian oil, a defiance that is quite unexpected.

India is indeed making money from the russian oil but what is wrong in collecting more money as mentioned by our tua pek kong aka lky.
Nothing is wrong with India reselling Russian oil to the EU and making a profit. Profiteering is a new mantra being used to target India, just like overcapacity is being used against China. In fact, it is perfectly in line with doing business that the West has adopted, lock stock and barrel or hook, line and sinker. The beef about the whole warp argument is that the EU is still buying Russian oil via India and China, not giving the USA all the benefits of slaughtering the Europeans. If the EU does not want to buy resold Russian oil, India has no way to force them to. Why are they still buying is because India sells oil to them cheaper, even with the touted profiteering, than what the USA is selling to the EU. The USA is not trying to be angelic and helping the Europeans and that it cares for the EU. It is all about their interest that is being affected with the EU buying Russian oil via India.
Aren't USA and European businesses, for example Apple, Luis Vinton, Hermes, Chanel and other luxury bag brands also profiteering, using China to make their products on the cheap and selling them at multiple times the cost. If that is not profiteering, I do not know what Scott Bessant is talking about.
It would be better for Scott Bessant just to tell India that what the USA can do, India is forbidden to do, as with every other country in the world. Satan never does what is good but always doing that by hiding behind an evil motive.
You see, even Tua Pek Kong does not see anything wrong with profiteering.
