Ryabkov on new US sanctions: "We will certainly answer"

25
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that Russia will respond to new US anti-Russian sanctions if they are adopted, reports RIA News.





Recall, US President Donald Trump signed a law in early August last year, suggesting the expansion of a number of sectoral sanctions against the Russian economy. The new blacklist report is expected to be published on January 29.

It is necessary to wait for the development of events in terms of the announcement by the Americans of certain decisions. And we will certainly respond. Questions of the relationship between practical actions and verbal reaction are the subject of separate consideration and decision. All options are under study, and all response options will be on the table at the President of the Russian Federation, when and if it comes to the need to respond not only verbally, but also financially to possible hostile steps towards Russia,
Ryabkov said in an interview with Izvestia.

Earlier, the deputy head of the international committee of the Federation Council, the former Russian ambassador to the US, Sergei Kislyak, noted that concrete proposals for retaliatory sanctions should be presented to the public only after the official decision of Washington. According to him, "you need to see what the United States plans to do and provide an adequate response that does not infringe upon the interests of Russia and Russian business circles."

      Russia does not have any economic leverage over the United States. All that we can do lies in the external political plane

        But do not wait! Putin himself said: "When a fight is inevitable, hit first." Or will we again “regret, be disappointed, be depressed”?

            It is interesting to compare the USSR experienced a sense of satisfaction, and the Russian Federation is increasingly concerned, feel the difference.

          hi
          Mmm, relations with the USA are nowhere worse. And we invest money in unsecured US papers (potential enemies) at 0,5%. It would be a good move to close all accounts with American banks and put their bonds up for auction, but will our financial bigwigs dare to do this?

        Yes, we ourselves will suffocate. Here is a new proposal for "improving" the life of "dear" Russians. When you receive new water certificates for a new one, hand over the theory. That is, pay money again. FOR WHAT ?!

    It is necessary to wait for the development of events
    In recent years, we are only doing what we are waiting for the development of events. And then at best we beat (or rather click) on the tails. Our sports officials also waited for the development of events in the hope of a Russian "maybe" and waited in full.

    We will answer with a ban on the export of our cars, aircraft, cracking equipment, software and loans. Let them return to the Stone Age ...
    In general, all this is sad.

      Funny, straight to tears. Here are just a few senators who go to Russia and are surprised to learn that they are on the black list, there is such a masonry of cinder blocks from indignation.

    In response, nationalize the Central Bank of the Russian Federation and limit the departure of Russian citizens to the United States, as a country that destroys the foundations of democracy in the world!

    It will be enough to threaten to leave the WTO and organize trade space through our payment network for countries under sanctions. And that’s all. The solution lies on the surface. I see it, it means in the Kremlin too. I’ll organize the Moscow-Beijing-Tehran axis.

    "You need to see what the United States plans to do and provide an adequate response that does not infringe on the interests of [Russia and] Russian business circles."

    That’s the whole point - the most important thing is not to infringe on the interests of Russian business circles! Russia dragged for a red word. Yes, we have long understood whose (n) resident it is.

    The answer will certainly follow. Lavrov will sing the aria "I am preoccupied, dejected, disappointed and embarrassed, but my friends will not answer them in any way. I will not."

    Russia has already responded asymmetrically to the expulsion of diplomats, the closure of the consulate, sanctions, discrimination in the pass and Mok.
    The following countermeasures will be as asymmetrical and submissive.
