The US Senate says anti-Russian sanctions may not work

As it turns out, there are not only notorious Russophobes and arsonists of world conflicts among US senators. Sometimes in the walls of the US Senate one can hear the voices of those who are close to realistic perception of world processes. Dian Feinstein, the head of the intelligence committee, was not at all a standard for the modern States. Feinstein said she was not sure of the accuracy and productivity of the sanctions pressure on Russia.

Senator Dianne Feinstein quotes "Russia24":

Many say that it is only necessary to wait until the sanctions start working and hit the Russian economy. But I'm not sure that this will happen.

Feinstein explained her position by saying that the level of support for the people in Russia is enormous, and in such conditions it makes little sense to rely on sanctions, hoping that they will change the position of the Russian population.

True, not long ago, Feinstein swam in the general western stream of indiscriminate criticism of Russia, urging President Putin (quote) to “repent for the downed Boeing.” Today, she no longer calls for repentance, but not at all because she radically changed her position regarding Russia, but only because he sees frank opposition to Western attacks from the Russian people.

The US Senate says anti-Russian sanctions may not work

America dick that will work against Russia!

[lis-ik]

It has already happened once with oil and the union has collapsed, now the same thing is stirring up again, and while we are sitting on the sale of resources, good luck will not be seen, if only our ours do not break and continue to bend their line!

[Balbes_I]

Sanctions have already worked, just not where the mattresses were planning, and there wasn’t even a return ... but it will ...

Do not dig another hole, you yourself will fall into it! - they need to learn Russian folk wisdom.

[jjj]

It is appropriate to add that it is extremely incorrect to consider the fall in oil prices as the cause of the fall of the USSR. It is a myth. At one time, he was exposed on this resource

[lis-ik]

I agree. But in general, I exaggerated, but this is one of the reasons, and pay attention to the hysteria that has begun now around the next drop in prices, yesterday on TV they pumped up all day, and rumors are doing their job in a certain environment.

[Sergei1982]

Once it happened with oil and the union fell apart, now again the same thing is muddied.
Oil prices at the collapse of the union did not have a key value, perestroika was to blame (of course, the economy had to be changed, but not so fast, but at a quietly slow pace and not for 500 days, as some wanted) and nerd Gorbachev, be more politician in his place and there was nothing and now the USSR would be like China and the billionaires would be, but the key role of the state would be preserved.

[bubla5]

You tell me those that you didn’t like the tuned economy of the USSR, and why, in your opinion, it had to be changed and broken, that everyone was destroying it, destroying it, and its remnants and developments work and will be in demand for another 20 years. It’s just that such a country was across throats, and there is no need here to tell tales about a backward economy.

[raf]

The question is not for me, but I will answer because I have something to say! I did not like the economy of the USSR for its inefficiency, for its ideologization, when economic expediency was inferior to political necessity! In order not to be unfounded, I will give an example. In 1985 I worked as a steering wheel on a combine (who did not the assistant to the combine operator knows this) .In that year, the director of the state farm, in order to report that the state farm began harvesting grain before anyone else, forced to start harvesting ahead of time when the grain was still green. The agronomist (plant growing specialist) told the director that the grain was still green, to which he replied: “I'll give you green, take it away!” As a result, the unripe grain dried up, became puny and useless. Subsequently, the director said that the wheat was sucked by a bug "turtle" , in order to hide my mistake. And I can cite a lot of such examples! Of course, we can say that the director is an ordinary tyrant. But the Soviet system, unfortunately, was arranged so that it often pushed "to the top" those who reported earlier than anyone else, who most attributed Of course they fought this, but not always effectively! Understand, I am not an anti-Soviet, I liked a lot in the USSR, I regret a lot that was lost! But you need to face the truth, the economic system was not effective!

[ARES623]

And you, my friend, what did you do in 76-85 and where, if not a secret?

[raf]

Quote: ARES623

And you, my friend, what did you do in 76-85 and where, if not a secret?

If the question is addressed to me: In the years 76-85 I studied at school. At the end of school in the summer of 1985, I worked with my father and was at his helm.

Russia always could and can keep blows! The West, with its sanctions, counted on mass protests within Russia ... Alas, everything turned out the other way ..))) Thank you Obama! We know that it will be difficult for us ..but as they say ..Nas ..and we are getting stronger.! Russia is changing the world and cardinally .. This is not just noticeable but clearly breaks through the information vacuum around us ..

Men! We have their sanctions to one place! We have enough strength to feed ourselves and our family! Remember our story! WE are not only warriors, but also farmers, but when it comes to it, we can exchange a wound for swords, and not vice versa, as our grandfathers were offered in 17 !!!

[Wiruz]

Now it’s out of place at all, but Russian gas will go to Ukraine. We just agreed. So far, at $ 385 per kilo-cub. As for debts, then 2 yards by the end of October, 1,1 yards by the end of the year, and the rest by the decision of some court there... The joke "It's not a jump - that is frozen" is becoming less relevant

This is what Russia sought from them, they can even sign it all, but there is no money and is not expected in Ukraine. If Europe pays, it will be the same as in the summer - it will be stolen, the rest will be allowed to go to war, so, I think, they will still freeze.

[quote = doctor] She forgot to add that sanctions have greatly strengthened the Russian economy and could ruin Europe and the United States.

she did not forget she understood. Touching our media - like Americans understand more and more ..... Not a damn thing these pieces of fat do not understand and guzzle all the time from hatred of Russia and all Russian.

Damn still and Teft someone knocked on a tambourine ... as then the Dutchman ...

Were they ordering a fight?
-no.

and then .. sorry we accidentally made a mistake with the address.


Today, she no longer calls for repentance, but not at all because she fundamentally changed her position on Russia, but only because she sees open opposition to the Western attacks from the Russian people.

alas, Mrs. Diane ... this is not a reaction .... that's when the riot police starts to drive us from the embassies and consulates of yours and your allies .. when Teft begins to hide so that they don’t put on the mop and tie it like a weather vane ... then maybe you will find out what counteraction is .. they haven’t finished it just yet .. and don’t finish it .. the gap can be for many ... and innocent, they’ll just come to hand ..

Putting on a mop is not our method. It’s polite to put yes on the count. Well, or on a barrel of gunpowder, let it fly.

[Iline]

They tried to estimate the actions of their people with similar sanctions against their loved ones and began to persecute Russia from these positions.
Lord! Do not forget about the mysterious Russian soul. A Russian will not start riots and robberies during a power outage for several hours, as it was with you. In the absence of some products, it will replace them in your diet with others.
Like in a joke.

You can’t cancel the sanctions! You can’t cancel the sanctions !!! Russia must oppose the lifting of sanctions!
Let them strangle themselves! We want to reach Europe and the States with their own hands! If only we are able to restore industry and agriculture!
Yes, I forgot - you can’t cancel the sanctions!

Well, the States are not very dependent on sanctions, which cannot be said about Europe.

[Stinger]

You see, they think that Russia will bend and crawl like dill! For the first time since 1991, I felt like a man of a great country. Thanks for the sanctions. Without them, a liberal rag would have sucked.

[qQQQ]

What did she see from? It is unlikely that in the United States someone experienced special illusions about what was happening. In my opinion, there are quite pragmatic politicians in the USA and their brains are not clogged with any democratic husk like in Europe. All this rhetoric is for export. It would have been possible to bomb Russia with impunity, they would have already bombed under Yeltsin.

[shinobi]

So it is. Scouts have opened the senator’s eyes. In the EU, businessmen are already openly trying to send .. sanctions. And 3 months have not yet passed from our reply. Oh, what kind of porridge is boiled.

[Denis fj]

Deadlock created by touchy politicians. People are dying! It is time to connect the mind, to refuse punishment there with all sorts of sanctions, to constantly prove that there is one kind of truth. It’s time to start speaking reasonably internationally. Who is reasonable in America? Why do those who come up with sanctions speak from all over America? You need to deal with your own problems, not to climb into foreign countries for the sake of one goal - profit! You need to trade. Why for the sake of personal gain destroy nations? After all, the 21st century! Stop being angry!

[novobranets]

President of Poland Komorowski (tearfully): Gentlemen, gentlemen, we are not passing by, we are buying apples! Fresh, red-faced ... Harvest this year ... Buy!
Behind the scene is noise, screams, the crash of a falling body. The postman Pechkin breaks in a maniac coat and visor.
Pechkin: Everyone stand! “Post of Russia” is working (to Lukashenka): Will you be Komorski?
Lukashenko: That god pardoned ... There he sells apples.
Pechkin: In short, a merchant ... You have a package from Moscow, from Putin. Now slowly lower your hands and sign ...
Komorowski: I knew! I knew that the hated Putin is chilling! Wimp! He will still experience Polish anger! He will tidy himself up with an apology, and I told him this: Kneel, stink! (breaks the packaging) He probably sent the money ... if less than a billion, I won’t take it! What is this (he turns the brochure in his hands, perplexedly, reads) “One Hundred and One Dishes from Apples” ... I don’t understand anything ... And what’s this enclosed? Probably a check ... So ... An air ticket to Smolensk with an open date! Uterus Boska! OK! Pig! (tramples on the brochure)
Lavrov: Oh! Come on, Komarik! Higher! Ht neskachettot ... Htos neskachettot!
Lukashenko: Why is this Polish mug hysterical?
Lavrov: Apple saved from him.
Lukashenko: He is a Catholic.
Lavrov: Yes, even a pagan, the harvest of apples disappears, it is necessary to save, so it turns out “saved”.
Lukashenko: What is wrong with the harvest?
Lavrov: We refused to buy fruits from them ... because of the codling moth ...

[novobranets]

Lukashenko Because of this, or what? (points to Obama's gobbling banana)
Lavrov: Well, you could say that ... because of her!
Obama (offended): What a codling moth! Jane, introduce me!
Psaki: Chef, I imagine you under the hot African sun, with a banana on a palm tree ...
Obama (angrily): Jane, that’s how Putin and Lavrov represent me ...
Lukashenko: From durra - woman, spoiled the whole presentation of this Mowgli!
Lavrov: Let me try ... Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the Nobel Peace Prize laureate who unleashed three wars, the most popular politician, according to the magazine Evening Homosek, Barack Huseynovich Oh-oh-obama ...
Poroshenko: That don’t listen to you! Everybody loves you! In gratitude, on behalf of the grateful Ukrainian people, allow me to hand you dear Baran ...
Obama: I know, I know, bread, yes salt ...
Poroshenko: N-and-and, bread and salt-tse Moscalsk Havanin. Our symbol is fried tires with a Molotov cocktail.
To the harrowing sounds of the Ukrainian anthem, the stage’s garnas with fried tires go onto the stage.
Lukashenko: Well, what kind of music, some kind of sad ... someone died?
Lavrov: What are you, comrade, on the contrary - didn’t die! On this occasion, Svidomo and spinning ...
Lukashenko (licking his lips): I hesitate to ask why ladies are without underwear?
Lavrov: A new trend, in the framework of the action: “Do not give Russian” ... Naughty ... Why Psaka in one shoe, which is not interesting?
Lukashenko (looking at Psaku): Ghm ... Really in one ... And why? Also some kind of action?
Lavrov: Role-playing games, comrade! Cinderella, ran away from the prince, pulled her leg, lost slippers ...
Zhirinovsky: In - in! I have long said that in the end, somebody pulls her legs! If he catches up, of course! This time, it seems, they still did not catch up! (referring to Poroshenko) By the way, malacholny ... I was sent a summons to the police for interrogation, okay, Zyuganov, in principle, not in vain, he should go long ago, why did you call Shoigu?
Poroshenko: Shaw, will he fly in?
Zhirinovsky: Your happiness, if it does not arrive! What if he flies in on a strategic bomber? Six months later, you will remove your homosexual Avakov from the rubble! But in general, it is not clear what you are dressed up - that? As it turned out, you don’t have any shale!
Lukashenko: And what is shale?
Zhirinovsky: Slippers are such, they are also called Vietnamese.

[novobranets]

Vietnamese President Shang: They don’t have enough slippers
Zhirinovsky: Actually, they lack brains, however, slippers, probably too
Shang: We are immediately ready to supply any necessary number of slippers to friendly Kiev.
Zhirinovsky: just see that white are.
Shang: Why exactly the whites?
Zhirinovsky: Because winter is coming, and I feel that in winter in Kiev white slippers will go like hot cakes.
Poroshenko: Garny Vietnamese lads dyakoy mentally ...
Shang: Excuse me, what is he doing sincerely?
Zhirinovsky: In principle, sincerely he is doing everything! It bombes the city, drinks a vodka, licks a monkey's ass, and in this case it tries to throw you ... Everything is sincere.
Yatsenyuk (in a furious whisper of Poroshenko): Are you crazy, Jutik? Why do we need slippers?
Poroshenko: Why not take it for free?
Yatsenyuk: What do you think, they will not require payment?
Poroshenko: What do you think, will we pay them?
Both neigh loudly ...
Obama: Gentlemen, a moment of attention! We were not going to trade apples ... and not slippers ...
Lavrov (in an undertone): It’s nothing surprising, whoever has what, sells to those ... Who doesn’t have anything (a look at Poroshenko), sells a bread-box ... Dialectics ...
Obama: By the way, Lavrov, tell me, why is your bloody Mordor regime going to sell Iranian oil? Don't you know that sanctions have been imposed on Iran?
Lavrov: And in relation to us, let me ask, what is introduced? We have sanctions, they have sanctions, minus minus - gives a plus.
Obama: Okay, an unsuccessful example, on the other hand I’ll come: Are you sure that Iran will not enrich uranium?
Lavrov: We are sure that Iran will not enrich Pindostan, and we will no longer enrich the Kuev kingdom. Sanctions, they are ... By the way, about sanctions: gentlemen, I almost forgot! Vladimir Vladimirovich, asked to congratulate dear Angela Dorothea Merkel on her birthday ... Allow, on behalf of, so to speak, on behalf of ... (holds out a voluminous bundle wrapped in shiny packaging)
Merkel: What is it?
Lavrov: Valenoks, of course.
Merkel: Why do I need felt boots?
Lavrov: Well, given that from now on, European airlines will fly to Asia through the North Pole, I think it will come in handy ... Feel like polar explorers ... Yes, don’t be so sad! Look, Latvia, it’s not worrying ... I’ll be getting ready to save sprats! Http: //www.inpearls.ru/pearls/tag/id/42153/value/sankcii

Sanctions, sanctions .... What to scare something. It's like fighting (as a child). They run into you, there are many of them, and you are alone. And if you give up, back down, then you are nobody, you will always be beaten, you will become an outcast, you will not be seen point-blank. But if you are not one of the shy ones, and went against the "shobla" alone, knowing that you will be "overwhelmed", but you simply will not surrender to them, but "at least I will overwhelm one", then only then the "shobla" will begin to respect you. And the next time she (shobla) thinks seven times before making another "present". It's the same here. There is a part of the population who does not want to lose their stable lifestyle (various "parmesan", "foreign delicacies", "Western technologies are all for humans", etc.) and, accordingly, does not want to "fight". They don't give a damn about everything, the main thing is that their "way of life" is not taken away from them. But these are a minority, they are mostly residents of large cities (Moscow, St. Petersburg, etc.) at the age of about 23-35 years. Most of Russia - people, in spirit - Russians (who never give up) are ready to accept this challenge of the Western "shobla". And this "shobla" begins to understand that something is not going according to their plan. They will soon be afraid of this. Well, we need to do our job. To raise the industry, develop the economy. We have everything, there would be a desire.

[Nikoha.2010]

Dear! What kind of sanctions? Europe has become obsolete and does not represent anything of itself. All of Europe under the amer. Finally, it has come to our government or has begun to reach the point that we ourselves need to raise and develop our own production. The events in New Russia were sober and, most importantly, rallied the Russians, not only the Russians. A new wave has gone and there is no turning back. The West will choke on its ambitions, the radicals have risen, and Russia is morally stronger than them! Hold on to New Russia and Russia!
