Analyst Blokhin called pressure on Russia the purpose of Moody's publication on sanctions

“I think that the goal is to exert information and psychological pressure on Russia.

This hysteria around Ukraine is not without reason.

I think that the goal is not to impose an additional package of sanctions, it will not make a difference.

Even a possible disconnection from SWIFT - many economists say that Russia is ready for this, ”added Blokhin.

In his opinion, the information campaign around Ukraine is being inflated by the United States in order to stall the commissioning of Nord Stream 2.

He also added that all campaigns to "demonize Russia" are being built around Ukraine.

The specialist explained that publications about possible sanctions and their analytics will continue to “put pressure on Russia”.

“Constant exaggeration is a certain element of their (USA. -

) strategy,” concluded the interlocutor of RT.

Earlier, Moody's analyzed possible sanctions against Russia during the escalation around Ukraine.
