Mattis asked to make "three exceptions" in anti-Russian sanctions

The head of the Pentagon, James Mattis, who in the United States is called "Mad Dog", acted as a "good cop" (in this case, a military man). The US Secretary of Defense said that US lawmakers should not block arms trade with those countries that continue to buy weapon from Russia. According to Mattis, now the countries trading in the arms market with the Russian Federation fall under American sanctions, and therefore are deprived of the opportunity to buy weapons from the United States.

At least three countries would be “allowed” to conclude contracts with American manufacturers, even if these countries buy weapons from Russian companies that have fallen under American sanctions. That’s how Mattis thinks and calls on congressmen to introduce relief measures for three countries: India, Vietnam and Indonesia.

Mattis:

These countries are focused on the Russian market. They have a lot of Russian weapons. But they really want to buy weapons from us. Why do we have to use the CAATSA sanctions regime against them?

Recall that earlier in the Ministry of Defense of India expressed claims to the United States over the fact that they put pressure on New Delhi with sanctions from the CAATSA regime, which "cannot comply with the spirit of partnership." Due to the fact that the United States is very eager to impose F-35 on India, the statement of Mattis is understandable.

But how did the leadership of Russia respond to the latest American sanctions, whined miserably, wiped it off and threatened the adversary with a finger ???

That's just the point, anti-sanctions have not yet been introduced, and the Pindos have already howled from their own sanctions.

But what about Turkey

And how did the Russian leadership respond to recent US sanctions

The official staff was inflated by creating a new department! Which will not create counter-sanctions, but will be engaged in supporting the Russian business. Although they have been doing this for a long time, having created many plazas and officials, spending a lot of money ... Apparently, their appetites are growing!
Here this department was called "antifak" ...

Due to the fact that the United States really wants to impose F-35 on India, Mattis’s statement is understandable.

The meaning of the entire Mattis statement in one sentence.

[Logall]

Yeah, other alliances will be banned from trading with them, but sanctions.
Pavel, welcome!

Guilty, Sanya, hello!

Sanya, in general, the government is living out its last days. Look at the root, as the prankster Prutkov and Cedar spoke with VO and don’t look at the top of the pedestal, you can’t explain the dunce. Another government will deal with this issue, then you can say something.

[Logall]

Brother, have you heard anything about preparing public opinion? It’s the same as in a discount store: at first the worst option is offered, and then they accept, in comparison with that, a more acceptable one.
Volodya, did you notice that everyone from the government goes straight to liberal-Westerners? A strange trend, as if reborn again ... What then did they do on the ground? What are the current ones doing? It seems they speak beautifully, but in reality? Then it erupts - "there is no money, but you hold on" ... After all, no one hates him ... But with whom did he come? Who moved him to the presidency? And who is holding it now? Brings evil thoughts, forebodings ...

The moment chosen for the announcement of the change in sanctions hints that the Trump administration was under pressure, most likely, from European and American buyers of Rusal aluminum, as well as commodity exchanges

Is it enough?

Can't you read? This is about the fact that Europe’s losses will come from their sanctions, and not from Russian counter-sanctions, which, in addition to hydrocarbons, which Russia will never cut off, will not give a damn about Europe. Enough?

You, dragging one, tried to challenge this:

I gave you an illustration on the topic of “how Europe is already trying to bend” (and not unsuccessfully) those same “stump dos” to lift the sanction against Rusal. So that it dawns on you that Hire - right, but you - alas, no.

Quote: Krasnoyarsk

on which, in addition to hydrocarbons, the supply of which Russia will never block, Europe does not give a damn

Well, what kind of rubbish are you grinding? It is clear that Russia has significantly fewer opportunities for imposing sanctions than the global hegemon, it is necessary to answer unconventionally, but it is sensitive, for some reason, the sanctions were lifted against Rusal, do not know why?

in connection with the well-known events in Armenia, there are already so many fears in some of our media outlets, the largest of which is whether this country will go along the path of Ukraine? let it go! , a purely arrogant Armenian look ... let the European democracy, the dictate of the IMF slurp, let the war get drunk ...

[andrej-shironov]

Then I agree with you! It’s totally violent to me about things in Armenia. Chose independence-slurp full spoons.

The authorities do not have our necessary rigidity and decisiveness to instantly respond to every incident in our direction!

[Kent0001]

Our government does not have such opportunities due to our economic weakness. Therefore, he himself is silent. He will speak only when the tension drops a little and they begin to forget about it .... then not soon.

How interesting are the American sanctions? If necessary, then you can move on? And at the same time, to convince the whole world of their pure intentions.
Circus !

[Tomato]

This is not a circus. This is pragmatism and calculation. It’s just that the countries listed are moving smoothly to Western weapons. Why should the Americans push them away? All of these countries have China as their main likely adversary. Which naturally brings them closer to America. In addition, India understands that in the event of a conflict with China, at least China will strictly monitor Russia's neutrality, i.e. refusal to supply components, spare parts of India.

Pragmatism is a balanced policy, and when you try to punish Russia for a chemical attack and then make a choice in favor of money, this is called cynicism, in relation to those people whom you are trying to protect.
