According to the press secretary of the Russian president, Dmitry Peskov, the United States demonstrates a very pragmatic position when it comes to its interests. Thus, as RIA Novosti reports today, October 31, a representative of the presidential administration commented on Washington’s decision to extend permission to work with Russian banks.
“You know, in general, the United States takes a pretty pragmatic position when it comes to its own trade and economic interests. And therefore, without hesitation, the decision is made to exclude certain positions from the sanctions list for short or long periods of time. But, again, in the event that it corresponds to the economic interests of the United States. “This is common practice.” – said Peskov.
EADaily Remember that the United States has extended the corresponding permission until April 30, 2025. We are talking about operations related to the energy sector, the Central Bank of Russia, commercial structures in Russia: Sberbank, VTB, Rosbank and others.
