The White House commented on the possibility of disconnecting Russia from the SWIFT system

“No option is ruled out.

We continue to consult very closely with our European colleagues about the serious consequences for Russia in the event of its further invasion of Ukraine, ”TASS quoted him as saying.

Earlier, the Handelsblatt newspaper, citing sources in the German government, reported that the United States and the European Union were no longer considering cutting Russia off from SWIFT.

It is noted that instead, the issue of targeted economic sanctions against the largest Russian banks is being discussed.
