“A number of other countries are more interested in occupying the space vacated from Russia for trade and economic cooperation.
Therefore, there will be no vacuum in trade and economic cooperation, ”TASS quotes Peskov.
He recalled that "a huge number of sanctions" are being applied to Russia by the West.
“But the world is bigger than the collective West,” Peskov stressed.
Earlier, Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin said that the reduction in Russia's trade with unfriendly countries goes hand in hand with an increase in trade with other partners.
