“Russia or the Russian state, the Russian Empire habitually lives in the model of sanctions.
No matter how much you take, there have always been some sanctions for the last 100-150 years.
I don't know why, "RIA Novosti quotes him.
Mishustin noted that the current sanctions allowed the country to make "a very serious breakthrough in import substitution."
"The approximate amount of losses that Russia had as a result of the imposition of sanctions at $ 50 billion, we have already increased more than $ 50 billion due to import substitution," the prime minister said.
As an example, Mishustin cited the Russian agricultural industry.
Earlier it became known that Switzerland imposed sanctions against Russia for the construction of the Crimean bridge. Two individuals and four organizations have been added to the sanctions list.
