Under such conditions, Russia will not depend on sanctions.
“Obviously, this is a destructive policy of the collective West, which imposes sanctions, it provokes and creates conditions for a global crisis, for a food crisis, and everyone is seriously worried about this,” RIA Novosti quotes Matvienko.
Also, according to the senator, Russia will be able to fulfill its debt obligations to foreign creditors, despite external restrictions.
“We are working with all our friendly countries on what conditions to create logistical and financial conditions for this,” Matvienko concluded.
Earlier, the Minister of Economic Development of Russia Maxim Reshetnikov said that the Russian industry began to adapt to new conditions.
