14 March 2019

 

The Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs commented on new economic sanctions for cooperation with Venezuela.

 

This time, one of the Russian banks entered the «black list», which, as noted in the comments of the Information and Press Department of the Russian Foreign Ministry, provides the Venezuelan government with the opportunity to work normally with foreign partners.»   

 

«We will not talk about the effectiveness of the US ban on dollar operations of this bank - a lot has already been said about the meager results of numerous restrictions against Russia. But there is another US strike on its own currency, trust in it in the world and its status as an instrument of international payments.

 

Washington is increasingly convincing the world community about the unreliability of the dollar, pushing it to abandon its use,» notes, in particular, the message of the Russian Foreign Ministry, which once again called on the US authorities» instead of imposing bans on foreign companies and banks to switch, finally, to normal joint work under the auspices of the UN to help stabilize the situation in Venezuela on the basis of the principles of international law."
