Response to US “hellish sanctions”
Views:The bill on “hellish sanctions” has not yet been adopted, and economic analysts are already calculating losses from a possible ban on the purchase of Russian government bonds and predicting a sharp fall in the ruble.
In general, the introduction of new restrictions contradicts the report of the US Treasury Department, which already raised the issue of sanctions against Russia’s national debt. It is obvious, and even American politicians admit this, that tougher sanctions are fraught with destabilization of the global debt market, and this, in turn, is not beneficial to anyone.
Why are American senators insisting on tightening pressure on Russia? Most likely, because political dividends took precedence over economic risks.
In addition to the proposal to hit the Russian economy, the main Russophobes of the United States are also planning to create a National Center for Countering Cyber Threats to the Kremlin.
It would seem that they will spend a few more million dollars of American taxpayers on the fight against Russia, this is their internal fun, but no. All provisions of this bill perform several functions at once.
The creation of the center is not even a preventive measure designed to ensure that “Russian hackers” stop interfering in the American elections, no. This initiative lays the groundwork for future speculation during the midterm elections, so that in case of “wrong” results, Russia can be blamed for everything. That is, under the guise of geopolitical claims, internal political disputes between US parliamentarians are being resolved.
And the West’s intention to classify the Russian Federation as a country sponsoring terrorism is dictated by the desire to influence other competitors in the foreign policy arena, such as China, with which the United States is “measuring duties” and waging a real trade war. After all, secondary sanctions will affect everyone who cooperates with Moscow.
Trump's latest tweet, where he threatens countries collaborating with Iran, is a dress rehearsal for a strike on Russia and its allies.
With “hellish sanctions,” America is killing several birds with one stone: resolving internal political disputes and dealing with its main geopolitical competitors. Well, and a bonus: the filled pockets of American congressmen, who do not spare any funds from their constituents for the mythical fight against the aggressor.
US sanctions blackmail, sooner or later, will lead to the fact that the states that have become victims of American megalomania will create their own coalition, and then our Western opponents will have no choice but to recognize the multipolarity of the world.
