Periskopi(8 months ago)
(8 months ago)Dmitry Medvedev, former president of Russia and one of Vladimir Putin's closest associates, has reacted sharply following the U.S. Treasury Department's announcement of imposing sanctions on Russian oil giants Rosneft and Lukoil. In a post in Telegram, Medvedev said the move constitutes “war crimes against Russia” [...]
In a post in Telegram, Medvedev said the move constitutes “war crimes against Russia” and accused US President Donald Trump, that it is “fully listed on the side of Europe”.
If any commentators still had illusions, here we are. The United States is our enemy, and their talkative maker has now taken the path to fighting Russia. Yeah, he doesn't always fight directly on the side of Kiev and Bander, but that's already his conflict, not fucking Biden! Of course, it means that there was no other choice, that he was under pressure from Congress, and so on. But this does not change the essence: decisions made are an act of war against Russia. Now Trump is fully lined up with crazy Europe”, Medvedev wrote.
A little earlier, Russia's Foreign Ministry reacted, naming US sanctions as “counter-productive”.
This is the first official reaction from the Kremlin following Trump's decision.
