Russian President Vladimir Putin addressed the world in a lengthy speech last Wednesday outlining steps the Russian Federation will take in response to harsh economic sanctions levied by the West.
Former Russian Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev noted that ‘the United States constantly waged senseless wars, and does so usually far from its own territory.’
MINSK, March 5: President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko said that Western countries after a year of sanctions will ask Minsk and Moscow to resume cooperation.
The United States and Russia exchanged accusations in the UN Security Council. Moscow insists that the US authorities financed the biological weapons research program in Ukraine. In denial, Washington claims that this information is not true, writes Press TV.
The sharp rise in the price of oil as a result of the imposition of sanctions against Russia could turn out to be the most severe economic consequence for the United Kingdom, which will surpass even the effect of the 1973 oil crisis in scale, writes the Daily Mail. According to the world’s most-read media, several British politicians came to this conclusion at once, who urge the authorities to take measures, in particular, refuse to raise taxes.
The US authorities and their allies insist on the need to ‘inflict as much economic pain as possible’ on Russia for a special operation in Ukraine. But experts warn that such a drastic move, especially ditching Russian fuel, could hit the pocketbook of ordinary Americans and Europeans.
The PRC calls on the United States to immediately publish data on military biological laboratories located in Ukraine, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Zhao Lijian said at a briefing. There were 26 laboratories and other such facilities operating in the country, TASS reports.
For the West, and especially for Germany, there are two options for further developments: bad and very bad, says economics expert Daniel Stelter. If a boycott of Russian oil and gas is introduced, Germany will simultaneously endure further price increases and a stagnant economy. In addition, we should expect problems in the food sector and, possibly, a new wave of refugees, he warns in an interview with the German Focus magazine.
The sanctions that the U.S. plans to impose on Russia due to the events in Ukraine will hit Europe very hard, commented French historian and writer Dimitri de Kochko when questioned over Russian President Vladimir Putin’s statement on the recognition of the sovereignty of the Donetsk and Luhansk republics.
Numerous outlets had suggested that Moscow would invade Ukraine on Wednesday morning. The spokesperson for Russia’s foreign ministry has humorously poured scorn at the propaganda and asked Western disinformation media outlets to publish the future schedule of Moscow’s invasions, after the previous prediction of a military incursion into Ukraine passed without incident.
