The impact of Western sanctions on Russia will increase over time, US Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland said at a seminar on the conflict in Ukraine at the Carnegie Endowment in Washington.
According to TASS, in this way she answered the question of why the imposed sanctions did not lead to the termination of the Russian special military operation (SVO) in Ukraine, and the International Monetary Fund raised expectations for the Russian economy in 2023.
“I would say that sanctions have never been a quick tool. They were not such in any of the applications, ”the diplomat emphasized. According to her, the sanctions measures taken by the West against Russia in the banking sector “have never been applied before, with the exception of the cases with Iran and North Korea.” The imposed restrictions are already having an impact, but over time, their impact will increase, the assistant secretary said. She also noted that according to the US administration, the Russian leadership is sending funds to the NWO that could be invested in education and infrastructure.
Recall, earlier it was reported that Nuland announced a “major new package of sanctions” from the United States and partners in the G7 on the anniversary of the start of the NWO.
