Russia – Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday that the Russian economy, despite the challenges it faced, is moving in a positive direction, stressing that Russia needs to consider what is comfortable or uncomfortable for its economy.
“Despite the unprecedented challenges we face in recent years, positive trends are strengthening in our national economy,” Putin said at the conference of the Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs.
He added, “It is not always beneficial for us to act according to the principle of revenge.” “It is clear from the old law that you have to do the same thing as they do to you, to put it bluntly, but we need to look at what is good for us and what is not good for the economy as a whole.”
The conference of the Russian Federation of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs, at which Putin speaks, will be held on April 25 at the International House of Music in Moscow. During this event, the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Vesco Transport Group, Andrei Severilov, put forward a proposal to ban the Swiss maritime operator Mediterranean Shipping Company (MSC). ) from working in Russia, since Russia itself is prohibited from entering Western ports.
Since the start of the special military operation in Ukraine, on February 24, 2022, many Western countries have imposed unprecedented sanctions on Russia and provided financial and military support to the Kiev regime. Western countries, through the material, military and political support they provide to Kiev, seek to obstruct the goals of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, but Moscow has stressed on more than one occasion that military operations in Donbass will not stop until all the tasks assigned to it are achieved.
The effects of these sanctions also had a negative impact on the countries that imposed them, leading to an increase in the prices of electricity, fuel, and food in Europe and the United States.
Russian President Vladimir Putin had previously confirmed that the policy of containing and weakening Russia is a long-term strategy for the West, and will not be effective, pointing out that the sanctions have dealt a serious blow to the entire global economy, and that the West is looking to destroy the lives of millions of people.
