sanctions regime on the one hand, and foreign partner sanction partners, on the other. as the european union our partners in the united kingdom, and elsewhere around the globe, they have come into alignment with our sanctions regime. it is greatly increased our ability to affect seizures, affect requests for searches, for arrests, a cheddar up. that i think will only continue, as those regimes continue to come into alignment, and particular, as our partners in europe and the united kingdom, continue to work on legislation on their own, that will increase their own ability to pursue on civil asset forfeiture. >> thank you. senator from south dakota is recognized. >> thank you mister chairman. thank you to both of you, for appearing before us today. miss rosenberg, as you know, the use of sanctions has increased astronomically, since the cold war. my question is, do you believe that sanctions are an effective way, to advance u.s. national security and policy priorities? >> thanks for the question. i do believe, sanctions are an effective way to advance u.s. policy objecti

impact of sanctions against russia. in reaction to republican governors sending undocumented migrants across state lines. that's followed by the united nations secretary general talking about global challenges. later, the former secretary of state mike pompeo speaks at an event in manchester, new hampshire. banking committee as treasury and justice department officials testified today on sanctions against russia amid its invasion of ukraine. live coverage on c-span three. today's hearing is in hybrid format, witnesses are in person, thank you, both, for being there. i know you have busy schedules, including today, thank you. members have the option to him here in person or virtually, as you know. vladimir putin's war in ukraine has massacred innocent civilian communities, weaponized food and energy sources, jeopardize the future of a sovereign democracy. his actions threatened global order, drawing a clear distinction between those who stand for democracy and rule of law and the forces of repression and tyranny. there a

to violate sanctions. that is to say there is an opportunity to go after entities outside of the g7 countries if they are violating these measures, and in some way have a jurisdictional cook to ours. >> i understand that what you're saying is they use cursive measures to say, if you do not participate with us in evading the price cap, you can go after, but, again, it does leave a network. admittedly, not a huge network outside the g7 countries, that would be free to purchase russian oil above the price cap. i think over time, because markets that just, can adjust quickly and oil traders can adjust quickly, over time, that leaves, i think, eight big hole in what i think is a really good idea and concept. we are working with you and your team and are happy to continue conversations as we introduce the final bill. thank you, mr. chairman. >> senator young? >> thank you, chairman. i think -- i thank our witnesses for being here. part of the hearing is keeping the pressures on russia and its enablers. with that

actions that have not been stop by her sanctions. all of these sanctions are worthy of sanctions. have had some success including export controls but sustained commitment and a greater willingness to close loopholes, aggressively targeting invasion periodically update sanctions guidance in order forui these actions to hae long-term impact on russia. we should never return to business as usual but sadly that seems to be what's happening. for example in june the administration announced sanctions which the treasury department referred to as the foundation of russia's defense industrial base. yet one of the companies under the umbrella will send dozens of employees to the united states in two weeks for a major international conference. this does not sound like a company the sphinx pressured by sanctions. we have actual people from the russian military complex going to travel here to participate in international conference which supposedly will better their industry. the administration talks but imposingngad costs on the russin sector. the continued presence in sectors of our economy

this is the reality of sanctions. you are packing a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any farm or in some cases, even more. so because we're dealing with diseases. so, you know, the sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think. some people say when we choose sanctions over war, because war, so violent sanctions are just as violent rozier needed both linda from the fulton sick. i was over here. not going are also a little bit guild, all but then the other half off, my buddy aletha. no other fever with blue. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy confrontation, let it be an arms race is offensive. very dramatic. development only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very critical time time to sit down and talk rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic and hype. this leads to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profiteering, despite the fact that sanctions have been imposed on one country, only

this is the reality of sanctions. you are packing a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any in some cases, even more. so because we're dealing with diseases. so you know, her sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think some people say when we to sanctions over war. because war, so violent sanctions are just as violent rozier, blood needed both in one of the not that i'm, the guy was over here that the way my rules. yeah. you know, see, love it, you know. but then the other path, i believe no other favor can claims it is achieved military breakthrough when you cranes east and south give true is this enough to change the course of the conflict? and at this point, this seems rather doubtful. however, this so called breakthrough will surely ensure the conflict continuous. today i'm authorizing the additional strong sanctions foreign companies quitting russia, design soon. thank you. this client atm cause of lawton banks disconnected from the international payment system. the social move hoppe

they came in to the sanction before it was actually sanctioned, more after the nuclear, after giving concession. this is actually true for russia. it's 240 like that no matter what you do. the other side was the sanction you and the find some excuse when iran resumed its nuclear program, the west can't access to the swift international banking system. but a substitute was found to evade us sanctions, germany, france, and great britain launch instincts the instrument in support of trade exchanges. a swift equivalent here undecided to do been you and was cut off from the swift system, was developing a phase of trading. for example, barter, trade, exchange goods, you avoid the normal banking system. you started to develop front company companies that when you looked at them, they're not only a company, but it linked to eat onion entities. john islam bo yeah. had obesity about all your a how he avoided as so do you do a lot of the sim only home recall ph be an equinox. can you make this? all the emeralds read more in and absorb it. so to columbia is thick body have need should ass jang s

this is the reality of sanctions. you are but a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any farm or in some cases. and the more so because we're dealing with diseases. so you know, the sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think. some people say, well, which are sanctioned over war because more so violent sanctions are just as violent rules. they needed both in when i'm the full been sick. i was over here that the way my rules. yeah. it's c o n d o n c a bus. my buddy elisa, no other zebra. ah ah, ah oh well it shows the wrong one. i'll just don't hold any new world. yes, to shape out disdain becomes the african and engagement equals the trails. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look so common ground rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic, and hide. this needs to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profiteering, despite the fact that sanctions have been imposed on one country, only russia, people in different parts of the world are feeling the impact,

what should we have for that 70% sanction?there are still things that need to be minimized . i already mentioned the recognition of russia as a sponsor of terrorism. biden recently said that he is not ready to go for it. but we all surely understand that this should be the tip of the iceberg of this sanctions policy . alexander, now i would like to add to ours conversations and why is the united states of america in the person of biden oh, they are still not ready to go on the path of recognizing russia as a state sponsor of terrorism, well, washington notes that, well, you have to understand that some things will have to be done in the end . terrorists are not being pursued, they are simply being destroyed, so even in this context, there will be a problem, it means that the country is a sponsor of terrorism, in fact, no one should communicate with her, and in fact, she should be in isolation in fact, she should not be invited anywhere, and so on. of course, if a country is recognized as a sponsor of terrorism, then its intern

in our view, the sanctions are very targeted. this is a crucial point on distinction on what we believe is misinformation. but is it so the reality on the ground tells a different story, doesn't bug one government says that the sanctions have absolutely better been quality. there is no way any investor comes to an economy or a country which is under sanctions. we also haven't been able to access affordable loans from the international monetary fund and world bank because of that, which could not be attended to because of sanctions. most people was formerly employed, they are paid. the local cards are to juice above and rules, but most of the services in products you normally buy been yes, dollars and change it to be. and i saw that is yes, dollars, which in afforded him i've in those it's not working. so i did of the day that ended up or she to move out or rented out and see those or quality places like very yes, ordinary them. bob, with the ones feeling the desperation and poverty of the situations. i'm not exactly thinking the

s. government for the sanctions. sure. you know, we are wish is that the legal sanctions imposed in our nation be removed because of them. we have been live in a difficult life. our kids are not going to school school, sorry, demanding that we pay fees and the is dollars. and we cannot afford that because there are no jobs. it's not easy living in a cemetery, but we have no choice. we can afford to pay rent anywhere else. but their m as a retired widow, i can no longer afford to pay the rent that is being demanded in u. s. dollars as well as that, as youth, we're disgruntled, we went to school and attend various qualifications which we are failing to use because there are no jobs since most of us are engaging in activities like bricklaying or leaving for south africa and to find better employment prospects i don't know why it's not easy to be evicted from one house to the other due to the failure to pay for. and so therefore i up to to even a cemetery. so i can have somewhere to lay my head. must go, is concerned about the

in our view, the sanctions are very targeted. this is a crucial point on distinction on what we believe is misinformation. but is it so the reality on the ground tells a different story does in babylon, government says that the sanctions have absolutely better the economy. there is no way any investor comes to an economy or a country which is under sanctions. we also haven't been able to excess affordable loans from the international monetary fund and world bank because of that which could not be attended to because of sanctions. most people was formerly employed, they are paid in the local current or to juice above rulers. but most of the services in products you normally buy didn't use dollars and change it to be. and i saw that is yes, dollars each in afforded him. i've in those, it's not working. so i did of the day that ended up or she to move out or rented out and see those or quality places like goods, ordinary them bob with the ones feeling the desperation and poverty of the situations. i'm not exactly thinking the u. s.

this is the reality of sanctions. you are a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any farm or in some cases and more so because we're dealing with jesus. so your sanctions are nearly as copacetic is people think some people say, well, we to sanctions over war because or so by sanctions or just as violet? rural c a . l. e. no, i got a fever. ah ah, ah . rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic and hype. this leads to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profiteering, despite the fact that sanctions have been imposed on one country, only russia, people in different parts of the world are feeling the impact, the so called unilateral sanctions have a boomerang effect on the countries that have imposed them banning all in ports of russian oil and gas and emmys. russian oil no longer be accessible. you as sports and american people will deal another powerful blow to food warmish. ah, i say, i'll say natural gas companies are making your grammar wanting, which is what our horse led righ

for example, we're going to sanction a country if you don't abide by the sanctions, we're going to sanction you. so the question comes, how do we deal with china? how do we deal with india, which is overtaking the u. k. one within the g 7 is one of the largest economies in the world. how do you deal with turkey? how do you deal with indonesia, which is hosting the g 7 in november? and iran, of course, has, has its own issues on north korea. now becoming part of the mix, so you basically have 40 percent of the world's population is governed by governments that don't want to participate. and do we have the means and the political will to sanction all of these, these countries? and i think in the end the answer is going to be no, we're going to try to do workarounds. justice. we have thus far on other issues related dnd, dnd relating to turkey and related to china. so interesting point you made them, i mean it looks like the east should we say when we go about the west, we need to talk about these, but they're looking to more multi polarize or, or at least except that it's a mode multi polariz

he was warned that if he allows santi to bypass turkey, turkey will fall. under sanctions under sanctionsknows that which means very well, that's why visa sanctions are good, it didn't work out to the end well , it was expected that it didn't work out to the end, the first step was taken, they are like that, you know them right away, they hear, they see, uh, everyone feels something about themselves, that's why how do i think about these persons if personally for each person? yes, you said that personal sanctions are important. and why did this billionaire come forward with some kind of proposal, because it is special that the situation with those who he begins to maneuver something to offer and so on and that is good, so this politics and e-e eighth packages and so on to close holes are needed, and we talked about these secondary sanctions that do not allow them to be circumvented, because entering the sanctions, you can accept many packages of sanctions, if they are bypassed, then they do not work, then the holes will be slowly closed, this is important, they are annoying and the main t

in our view, the sanctions are very targeted. this is a crucial point on distinction on what we believe is misinformation. but is it so? the reality on the ground tells a different story does in lab one government says that these sanctions have absolutely better the economy. there is no way any investor comes to an economy or a country which is under sanctions. we also haven't been able to excess affordable loans from the international monetary fund and world bank because of that's which could not be attended to because of sanctions. most people was formally employed. they are paid in the local currency or to juice above in guerrillas. lodge most of the services in products you normally buy vs dollars and change it to the am i studies? yes. dollars each been afforded him. i've in taos, it's not working. so at the end of the day, i end up or she to move out often rented out and see those or what the places like there yet. what did i resolve? bob was the one feeling, the desperation and poverty of the situation. i'm not exactly thi

this is the reality of sanctions. you are but a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any farm or in some cases and more so because we're dealing with diseases. so, you know, the sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think some people say when we choose sanctions over war, because more so violent sanctions are just as violent rosier. they needed both a little bit, you know, then the other line, but really no other fever. ah, i look forward to talking to you all that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings, except where such order that conflict with the 1st law show your identification. we should be very careful about our personal intelligence at the point, obviously is to place trust, rather than fear. i would like to take on various job with artificial intelligence, real summoning with obama protective own existence, with rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic and hype. this leads to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profi

first secondary extraterritorial sanctions, second full trade embargo secondary extraterritorial sanctionswest forbids third countries to enter trade with russia and belarus, under threat of punishment, begins to blackmail india, china, israel and others. what is a full trade embargo - it is clear without words, another question. is the west ready to put pressure on these levers and the us and eu countries understand that independent states may not obey them, like a drunken exploding sheriff, and with such authority you cannot drive the world under the plinth. sanctions are a club that hits with both ends at once, and the battle here is for survival, but it’s not the one who hits harder who wins, but the one who has large reserves in order to survive the period of restriction, the most painful return line for the future of europe is the rejection of belarusian fertilizers and russian energy carriers, according to the international association fertilizer producers share our belarus potash products in the world market. about 20% more than 130 countries were interested in it. after some of th

came in to the sanction before it was actually sanctioned. more after the nuclear, after giving concession. this is actually true for russia. it's 240 that, that no matter what you do the other side once the sanction you. and they find some excuse when iran resumed its nuclear program, the west can't access to the swift international banking system. but a substitute was found to evade us sanctions, germany, france, and great britain launch instincts the instrument in support of trade exchanges. a swift equivalent here undecided to do then young was cut off from the system was developing of a phase of trading. for example, barta to exchange goods. you avoid the normal banking system. you know, it started to develop front company companies that when you looked at them to witness union company, but david linked to eat onion entities. john islam bo, yeah. adobe bout, oh, you're a whole he aboard as well. do you do a lot of bessy simoli on recall. ph. be an equinox. he managed to saw the m roots where more him absorb it. so to tell you is thick bo

i mean in sanctions have never worked anyhow. i mean that sanctions on iran for how many years, and i didn't, you know, cause the government to fall there either. so, i mean, it only hurts so many other people and you're finding inflation is going to continue to rise in to 2024. and i think next year's going to be even worse, or the certainly have in somewhat of a blow buck effects over in europe. and all not saw picture in the summer, putin did call on the west to lift the sanctions on the node stream to pipelines, to ease the energy crisis. the how lightly do you think that is or is it not the full given some of the rhetoric we've been hearing over the past couple of weeks and months? and honestly, i mean, i've been advising governments for pi over 40 years. and i have never seen a group of most incompetent world leaders in the west, in my whole career. i mean, it doesn't seem to be anybody out there that actually has a clue as to what's going on themselves. and they're just reading q cards and taking advice from people behind

so, you know, her sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think some people say when we to sanctions over war because war so by sanctions are just as violet rule law, they needed both in one other. not that i'm the guy was over here that the way my rules. yeah. you know see, love it, you know, but then the other line, but really no other fever. ah ah ah ah ah a know that you both on your part to show the 1st with the one of your future. anyways, i follow up question, give with rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic and hype. this leads to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profiteering, despite the fact that sanctions have been imposed on one country, only russia, people in different parts of the world are feeling the impact, the so called unilateral sanctions a boomerang effect on the countries that have imposed them banning all in ports of russian oil and gas emmys, russian oil will no longer be accessible, us porch and american people will deal another powerful blow to peruse. warmish ah, sales say natural gas companies are making a graph wanting, which is wha

this is the reality of sanctions. you are packing a civilian population, which means that are just as deadly as any farmer or in some cases and more so because we're dealing with diseases. so, you know, sanctions are nearly as copacetic as people think. some people say when we choose sanctions over war, because more so violent sanctions are just as violent rozier needed both. now that i'm the full then sick. i was over here that the way my rules. yeah. it see, love it, you know, what then the other line, but he only thought no other fever, a ukraine's recent battlefield successes with a supportive nato may change the course of the conflict. russia special military operation launched on february 24th has been slow and methodical. none the less, the crumbling has made it clear it will cheap and security goals that need an escalation of the conflict. rising prices for groceries in essential goods, panic and hype. this leads to empty shelves in supermarkets and retail profiteering, despite the fact that sanctions have bee

in these sanctions. they both are working with russia to continue economic cooperation. didn't got for the nation. so the way you create toolbar, change out of what shenice wooster hobble when shit, jersey taking baby it don't quarter. what shenice shit doing away. i don't don't toyotas up able. how does the pacing you need for the tradition fixture? i knew it took up by good luck, additional stomach, a little better split up, but we got to shooting another shot, dealing with the petition. if you start in the present of europe, it could be the buses that you know, most of it. okay. the 2nd president button will be speaking to president, she tomorrow it will make clear that china will bear responsibility for any actions it takes to support russia's aggression. and we will not hesitate to impose cost kit ok. use the solution, you will, you will see you restart the machine. so sharp premier, let me let the little 1st let me talk to you today. can you see things to me in 3 months, a, me a period because you

8 times a charm is sanctions. were actual divorces and not just g o economic or geopolitical breakups than the european union would be hollywood legend. elizabeth taylor, if she had divorced any single one of her ex husband's 8 times. and i guess that makes russia richard burton then because brussels has just announced that it's breaking up with russia yet again with an 8th sanctions package. and the u. brass says that it's really going to make moscow pay the price this time, which frankly would be a nice change from previous sanctions, packages, which have mostly just made europeans pay the price. so today, we're together proposing a new package of biting sanctions against russia. so what's going to be the game changer this time around? well, these new measures are set to ban russian toilet paper and other hygiene products from being imported to the e. u. russia has the natural resources that the you largely lacks to make such things which are particularly important right now in light of german toilet paper. manu

and that is why we saw such mad reflexes in medvedev again, well, back to the sanctions, yes . the situation, russia attacks on february 24, and if a similar agreement was already in effect at that time, then 25 in one day of february, russia would receive an oil embargo, a ban on gas supplies, a shutdown of swift , a blocking of all their money in one day, and six months of work with our foreign partners, blocking the existence of russia on the economic front, it seems to me that such a blow would be, well, not you, russia, but him therefore, it is possible and so most likely so much so, so since russia has been under sanction pressure for eight years and could still receive components for weapons from the same france for germany for eight years war, so there was a clear understanding, so they acted on us, it was simply done to circumvent the sanctions on both sides. we must not forget this. well, what i am interested in is to ask ivan the role, er, what role did anderson-rasmosen ex play in the preparation of this document - nato honsek because we understand that people of su

going to sanction a country if you wrote, abide by the sanctions. we're going to sanction you ah, presented on the u. s. and use off of m s m b c raised more than a few eyebrows this week off the claiming the media shouldn't present opposing sides when it comes to major news stories. there are 2 words we need to move from our media of a cavity right now, and that is both sides. this fundamental crunch this reliance on both sides is it kind of lazy, way of covering political is deeply dangerous. there are a bunch of major issues in which there are not both sides or not both sides on climate change. there are not both sides on white supremacy. there are not both sides on democracy, but they're not both sides on the holocaust will cool. so not everyone agrees with that call for just one sided coverage for us here at auto international. we're always trying to present you both sides of the story even with all the deluge of well delicate angles as well. here's a sample of some of the reactions to this on social media. while there's no risk of hearing both

going to sanction a country if you wrote, abide by the sanctions. we're going to sanction you. ah, yes, news outlets m s n b c is a boss about one sided journalism as host matthew on an interview with full in new york times with all the bands that says the media should imprison both sides were opposing sides of major issues. there are 2 words we need to remove from, i mean if a cabinet right now and that is both sides, this fundamental crunch, this reliance on both sides is a kind of lazy way of covering our political is deeply dangerous. there are a bunch of major issues in which they're on both sides or not. both sides of climate change don't on both sides of white supremacy. there are not both sides on democracy, but they're not besides on the holocaust. of course, thankfully not everyone agrees with that cool. full one sided coverage is a sample of some reactions on social media. while there's no risk of hearing both sides on m. s m, b, c. so he should feel right at home. i bet there are 2 sides to every single story ever. that authoritarians lo

people think some people say when we to sanctions over war because we're so violent sanctions are just as violet rule. they needed both in one of the not that i'm, the guy was over here like the way my rules. yeah. you know, see, love it, you know, but then the other night, but really no other fever ah ah, throw suffered because we're getting them business and you with that was chosen. yeah. americans great. you. when you wrote it, you just got the really just touching up group just feeling when you was just such a short muslims. you're off the different student info with you throw in the protein, you're still there with your mad. i'm both in the study or something that was the voice of to watch. so it was for me to, to one of our parents thought it was you, which in the longer your bushes just a new social, not political push to, to stream to put a mon, because or you know, your boss, look, you school cold here. i don't know who's got no point. i don't know if i should just to begin with these 1st opinion. finances come on both with rising prices for groceries in essential goods, pani

would be possible to control the prices of both oil and gas in order not to allow russia, under sanctions to price increases, to make more money in some places because we saw such an effect, so that sanctions are one of the points, they partially led to an increase in prices in some places, and russia, in fact, began to sell less, began to earn more, and indeed this mechanism began to be discussed, but as far as i understand, there is no final option yet, but it is connected with in order to create a mechanism with this, i want to say something else, for some reason we don't talk about it less. but i remember that in volodymyr zelenskyi's hall in the office of president andriy yaremchuk yermak, they were considering what mechanism so that, for example, russia would continue supply gas to europe, but the funds it keeps for this, for example, were accumulated in a special account that russia can potentially receive only after the end of the war in ukraine, this , by the way, could also be one of the incentives, well, at least partial incentives for everyone to understand that a - well, euro

the sanctions are here to stay just a little more effort. and maybe they can actually find a buzzword to wriggle out of the sanctions they imposed on their own energy supply . but it's all about the principle of denying russia revenues to pursue its interests in ukraine, right? if that's the case, then why have e u and us imports of russian metals from aluminum to nickel surged over 20 percent in some cases over the past year. the sanctions don't really seem to be hitting their stated target, but at least maybe europeans can find comfort in the notion that as the winter energy crunch sets in, they can wrap up their metabolism and stay warm by laughing at the seemingly endless e u. clown show, just don't laugh to tears though, as it risks wasting tissues. ah, facebook should pay reparations through hundreds and thousands of rowing us for my and mar, originated, hey, content spread through facebook, social media platform. that's according to the latest report from an misty international. in 2017, the rel, hinkle were killed, tortured, raped, a

well, in fact, you have to understand that as of today, the lifting of these sanctions against viktorh, i will remind you, they were actually connected with the events of 2013-2014 after the revolution of dignity, the european union, many others of western countries such as switzerland, the united states imposed sanctions on ex-officials in the regime of viktor fedorovich yanukovych for their own sake and expected certain results from ukraine. the fact is that the sanctions were imposed not only in connection with the actual events that took place on the maidan, but the sanctions had to to have some justification and the european union waited for a very long time from ukraine to present official accusations against yanukovych, first of all, for corruption, and that a lot of time has already come, but there are actually very few such accusations, and so it happened that the sanctions were lifted because there are no certain procedures and requirements for appeals, etc., and the sanctions cannot continue indefinitely, this must be understood, but the positive is that viktor yanukovych i

it will have to all be sanctioned sanctions are a terrible, terrible thing that kills so many tens of thousands of people. what was it? 40000 in venezuela by us sanctions. i'm in the middle east right now. we know the impact of sanctioned on syria and the fact that british in european union bombers bomb, syria and the bus 24 hours sanctions armed warfare, a 100 interventions going into jobs university since 991 and the fall of the berlin wall. this what we're seeing now with the last desperate attempts to save western europe ideas that they are democratic that they are normal. society is not new imperialist societies basically run by washington. another remark seemed to slip through the cracks. the german chancellor recently called for the e u to start voting by majority instead of what happens now on a unanimous basis will. will that silence dissenting voices of smaller estates. now, what's your views a lot move if it comes? i mean, why now, why does so suddenly say, look, we can't have a smaller states deciding on who we sanction and who we don't. that's always the biggest smallest

and we have learned how to cope with the sanctions, how to back bypass the sanctions. and iran could be of much help to the russians as it is right now helping the russians with bypass and the sanctions. it could also help the chinese in soon in future when the are by the administration impose as tough sanctions are very tough package of sanctions waiting for the chinese as the white house has warned. so these could be helpful. i mean, they could form our economic coalitions and blocks inside and the united states would be less successful in imposing sanctions in these countries on when iran was alone, they failed. now that it's russia, iran, china, and god knows how many else there are more than 20 something 28 states that they're under the u. s. sanctions, venezuela, cuba, and many others. so that's why we have been offering these nations the sanctioned nations to start a club of sanctioned nations in order to help each other. we helped win his will a lot in the last couple of years and they have survived big. they have failed. i mean, americans have failed to topple

how should i consider the sanctions? political will and not to expect that they will bring impressive results in western leaders are now addressing the population of their countries regarding the fact that citizens may feel or already feel problems due to the russian-ukrainian war and the sanctions imposed against russia, for example johnson recently appealed to the british about raising tariffs and emphasized that, according to your observations, putin should be blamed primarily for this. do people in britain understand what is happening and who is to blame for the increase in tariffs of course, great britain is no longer in the eu. but i think that in all of europe, in great britain and in other countries, people understand that the jump in energy prices is largely connected with putin's war and that if putin does not stop in ukraine , he will have to deal with him elsewhere. and this will be even worse. i believe that there is a broad consensus, but at the same time there is concern about what the final will be, what

and more precisely to tell about sanctions, i would say that we are expecting sanctions, which really, really hit russia in terms of their financial revenues where we have, we have 2 stops and then by the money to believe the mirror put in. and his regime reach means for me that we have to stop everything relate that to trade in russia in terms of energy. so energy, sanction, this is what is desirable and what we would love to see in the package. number 8, this is really needed and please keep in mind the russians are receiving the main source of their revenue from energy sector. it's more than 40 percent just from oil . they are receiving between 35 to 47 percent. let's say uh, what percent just from oil, that's why it's all very important the you could say, look, we've agreed to the importance of coal, which is already put in place. we've agreed to in oil imports later this year. and that natural gas is no longer as much of an issue, because russia itself is already reducing flows. what more can you expect if you can point to those things and say, and say we've already taken steps,

they just not the free lunch sanctions will back lush sanctions have cost. the price of the sanctions not just imposed upon russia, is imposed upon off lot of countries as well, including european countries in our country as well on it. so we still all kind of sanctions are indeed directed against half a 1000000 citizens of you and against millions of citizens of the rest of europe. known him so well, the west ever learned from its own past actions and from leaders like by the mere putin blatantly telling them that russia's warnings are not to be taken lightly or will they be yet another example of the definition of insanity and continue doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. m, as in me see how many has saw during an interview with former new york times journalist ben smith says that the news media should get rid of both sides of major issues being discussed. there are 2 words we need to move from our media if a company right now and that is both sides, this fundamental crunch, this reliance on both sides of the kind of lazy w

sanctions efforts as well as country supporting sanction objectives short of imposing sanctions themselves geopolitical incentives to diversify into the currencies by the sanctioning coalition including dollars. my analysis question currencies and 2022 very modest diversification out of dollars. some diversification out of pound and ian as well. diversification into friday's r&d, other currencies and year old. if alternative payment systems expands to involve many countries and private users and cover a wide array of commercial and financial transactions, the dollar will inevitably play a less prominent role than it has in thesc past. this is a scenario worth considering. the decline in the dollars importance in the international economy, the economic and geopolitical benefit the united states enjoys as a result of issuing the dominant currency will also decline. an acute weakening of the dollars global role will jeopardize the united states ability to influence, stabilize and enforce international order. national security ramifications could be quite significant. whenever possible, the un

what kind of sanctions can be imposed? partial mobilization of conscripts continues sends training centers for combat training details in our materials. according to the landing plan, the russian cosmonauts are returning home from the iss to earth at 14:00 moscow time. but the launch of the crew dragons ship by russian woman anna kikina was again postponed for a day, the reason for the hurricane and n. because of him, more than 2 million florida residents were left without electricity. weather forecast from our meat grinders. vesa discovered the fourth gas leak from the northern streams, the local press reports, the russian embassy in the united states, meanwhile, demanded a comprehensive and objective investigation. who is behind the sabotage, while it is not known, the gas in the pipes will end on sunday moscow insists on the need to find out all the circumstances of the attack on russian gas pipelines from nord stream and nord stream-2 , the russian embassy in the united states stated this, they reminded that it is nece

be more and there will be more sanctions, you are absolutely sure of this.rength to listen to him yet. i read it. i looked at the pictures from there, they have such guests’ faces, as if they were all hiking, so not very happy. i did n’t see anything. he wants to somehow sell to his people what he is doing. well , look at the combat, all these speeches of his seem to me to have been written off from the relevant conditions of hitler, if you look at what hitler said when he was annexing, annexing students, when he means his from austria did, i.e. actually annexed austria, annexed it to germany, that’s all it’s like two drops of water, but there is one but there is one very important difference that hitler, unlike putin, did not have nuclear weapons, and in the world invented by putin, this annexation turns war from an offensive operation on defense and putin warned that he can use all weapons to defend his territories. and now he will consider part of the ukrainian territories as his own and nuclear weapons. well, many have no doubt that he can use them. what
