Putin said that Russia has no desire to work at a loss with unfriendly countries

He said this at a meeting on the situation in the field of metallurgy.

“Russia will always be a reliable and responsible supplier of metallurgical products for foreign buyers and partners, regardless of any political troubles of today.

For those who are set on a profitable, predictable business cooperation, we will also be reliable partners.

But we will not work to our own detriment with those who show a clearly unfriendly attitude towards us, ”TASS quoted him as saying.

Putin also stressed that this applies not only to the metal market, but also to other export goods.

Earlier, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin announced Russia's openness to partnership with other countries.
