“Listen, let's speak frankly. What real sanctions against Russia are we talking about? What are the main Russian export products that fill the budget? Oil and gas. The West both bought them and continues to buy them. They are even increasing volumes. By the way, we take the same Russian gas from the pipeline and then replace it at the border. And with the same Russian gas under the guise of European gas. Now remember the sanctions against Iraq and Iran. With the oil embargo. Do you feel the difference?” the expert points out.
“Therefore, Putin can afford to pursue the policy he wants. And only we, like fools, shout: the West is with us! Yes, the West will separate us from Russia and won’t blink an eye,” Korneychuk believes. “We have already gone through all this in history during the time of the Ruin.”
