“Unfortunately, sanctions – we expect them.

Today it is difficult to say what they will be,” the head of the diplomatic mission said.

He noted that every day there are discussions in the US Congress regarding sanctions.

According to him, there is a complete consensus in the United States that anti-Russian sanctions are needed.

Antonov noted that the question is only in the scope of sanctions and timing.

Also, the Russian ambassador to the United States said that Russia is not going to attack anyone, because this is not in its interests.
