The Kremlin said that they are taking into account the statements of US President Trump, but are not afraid of threats, because Russia has “immunity” against sanctions.
This was stated by Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov.
In response to Trump’s threats to impose sanctions against Russia within 10 days if it does not begin to take real steps towards peace in Ukraine, the Kremlin responded that Russia “has been living under a huge number of sanctions for quite some time,” and the country’s economy “operates under significant restrictions.”
“Of course, we have already developed a certain immunity in this matter and continue to monitor all statements by President Trump and other international representatives on this issue,” Peskov said.
Earlier,US President Donald Trump said that Russia has 10 days to reach an agreement on the war in Ukraine . If it refuses, Washington will impose new economic restrictions, including tariffs.
By the way, US President Donald Trump said that he is no longer interested in meeting with Russian dictator Putin.
Recall, on July 28, US President Donald Trump said that he plans to shorten the deadline for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to reach a ceasefire in Ukraine. The day before, the Donald Trump administration announced that it would impose secondary sanctions and tariffs against Russia if a ceasefire is not achieved in Ukraine within 50 days.
