Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation Dmitry Medvedev said that the Russian Federation will not leave the West’s intention to harm the people of Russia unanswered, and will soon present its demands to hostile countries - and not only economic ones.
“We will not leave unanswered the intention to cause harm to our people, and sanctions of any kind always hit people and businesses, but not the authorities. We will carefully record this very case of encroachment on our interests and in the very near future we will present our demands to hostile countries - and It’s not just economic, it’s a hassle,” Medvedev wrote in his Telegram channel.

Россия переживет новые санкции, но не забудет, не простит и не оставит без ответа попытку причинить вред ее народу, заявил Медведев.
ReplyDeleteRussia will survive new sanctions but will not forget or forgive this attempt to harm its people, Russian Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev said on his Telegram channel.
ReplyDelete"We will survive this. But we won’t just forgive and forget, we’ve got a good memory. We won’t leave without response the intent to harm our people," he wrote, posting a similar commentary on X.
According to Medvedev, with the exception of sanctions against the Artek international children’s center, "it is boring even to list" the new sanctions. According to him, European politicians are working "in a dull and uncreative manner, once again repeating themselves," sacrificing the interests of their own countries and people. He added that the restrictions hurt Russia "far less than the EU citizens and companies."
Medvedev said that by the end of last year, "the total Europe’s loss caused by the anti-Russian sanctions reached about $1.5 trillion," while Russia switched to Asian markets and recouped lost revenues.
"This is why in Europe they have to approve packages of new sanctions with one hand and go on buying Russian gas with the other: that is their only lifeline," he said. "Your own shirt is closer to the body. Yet, the shirt is wearing off," Medvedev added. "So the 14th package of sanctions will not reach the goal, but will be yet another act of hostility," he concluded.
The 14th package of EU sanctions was approved on June 24.
