Foreign Ministry: Russia is working on a response to EU sanctions against Russian diamonds. Previously, the European Union blacklisted Alrosa and the company’s general director, Pavel Marinychev, as part of a ban on the import of diamonds from Russia.

refusal to supply Russian stones will inevitably lead to the fact that Belgium will cease to be the world center of diamond trade, and other countries will become the center of gravity, the diplomat emphasized. The Russian Foreign Ministry has not commented on the report.
