Authority Russia commenting on the latest moves United States of America (US) in imposing economic sanctions and expelling 10 of its diplomats. Russia insists that the US will accept the consequences of its so-called “hostile” move.
As reported AFP, Friday (16/4/2021), US authorities announced the imposition of the latest economic sanctions for Russia and the expulsion of 10 Russian diplomats in its territory on Thursday (15/4) local time.
The move was declared in return for Russian interference in US elections, a massive cyberattack orchestrated by US hackers and various other malicious Russian activity against the US.
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stressed in her statement that the response from Russia to the new US sanctions was “inevitable”. He also revealed that Russia summoned the US Ambassador in Moscow, John Sullivan, to ask for an explanation of the US move.
“The United States is not ready to accept the objective reality that there is a multipolar world that ignores American hegemony,” Zakharova said in a statement broadcast on local television.
“We have repeatedly warned the United States of the consequences of its hostile steps, dangerously increasing the degree of confrontation between the two countries,” he stressed.
“The response to sanctions is inevitable,” Zakharova warned the US.
