Antonov : Sanctions against Russia harm US interests

Washington, SANA- Unilateral sanctions of the US are detrimental for its interests and for prospects of the global economic recovery, Russian Ambassador to the U.S Anatoly Antonov.

Tass quoted Antonov as saying that “Washington’s stubbornness, which continues to unwind the sanctions spiral, is no longer surprising.

The US authorities refuse to acknowledge that unilateral illegitimate steps are unable to achieve their stated goals. On the contrary, they are attacking the interests of the United States and the prospects for the recovery of the global economy,”he said.

“The American administration, within the framework of the sanctions that it imposes every period rushing around like a cowboy with not very good eyesight and shoots randomly,” he added.

“I would like to emphasize that such hostile steps cannot affect the approaches and positions of our country, they will only lead to further freezing of the bilateral dialogue, it will not be possible to isolate Russia with sanctions, a good example of this is the tight schedule of Vladimir Putin’s international meetings in Samarkand at the summit of the SCO member states,” he noted
