🇷🇺🇺🇸Ответ Посла России в США А.И.Антонова на вопрос СМИ

❓: Уважаемый Анатолий Иванович, как бы Вы прокомментировали новые антироссийские санкции США?

💬 А.И.Антонов: Администрация агонизирует. Множатся безрезультативные русофобские «залпы». Задача – показать свою антироссийскую сущность на фоне кипящей здесь электоральной кампании.

▪️Экономические санкции бьют по гражданам и фирмам. Наносят вред не только внутренним потребителям, но и партнерам Америки в «третьих» странах. Лицемерие Вашингтона удивляет: здесь говорят не о России, а о компаниях в развивающихся странах.

▫️Негатив американских действий – для всех очевиден. Безрассудные шаги администрации ведут к кризису, но не созиданию. Очевидно, что для достижения подлинной независимости в экономсфере давно пора отказаться от диктата доллара в международной валютно-финансовой системе.

▪️Замечу, что в отношении России введены столь многогранные санкции, что нам, по сути, безразлично, что еще придумает администрация для того, чтобы «наказать российский народ». Мы сделаем все, чтобы наши граждане чувствовали себя спокойно и не оглядывались на американские выпады.

🇷🇺🇺🇸 Ambassador Anatoly Antonov’s answer to a media question

❓: Dear Ambassador, how would you comment on the new anti-Russian sanctions of the United States?

💬 Anatoly Antonov: The administration is in agony. The fruitless Russophobic "salvos" are multiplying. The goal here is to show the officialdom’s anti-Russian essence against the backdrop of the boiling election campaign.

▪️Economic sanctions are hitting citizens and companies. They are harming not only domestic consumers, but also America's partners in "third" countries. Washington's hypocrisy is surprising: they are not talking about Russia, but about companies in developing nations.

▫️The negative aspects of U.S. actions are obvious to everyone. The administration's reckless steps lead to a crisis, but not to something creative. It is obvious that in order to achieve true independence in the economic sphere, it is high time to abandon the hegemony of the dollar in the international monetary and financial system.

▪️I would like to point out that sanctions against Russia have been so multifaceted that we essentially don’t care what else the administration comes up with to “punish the Russian people.” We will do everything to ensure that our citizens feel at ease and don’t look back at American attacks.
