Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that the unprecedented Western sanctions against his country will strengthen its independence from the rest of the world.

And the Russian “Interfax” news agency quoted Putin as saying today, Thursday, during a ministerial meeting: “There has always been pressure because of the sanctions, but it has now acquired a complex character, creating for us certain questions, problems and difficulties, but as these difficulties have been overcome in the past years, we will overcome her now."

"We must get past this period, and there is no doubt that the economy will adapt to the new situation, and this will lead to an increase in our independence, self-reliance and sovereignty," Putin added.
