Medvedev called the sad result of anti-Russian sanctions and their impact on world trade

“The result is sad.

With its manic sanctions, the West has achieved only one thing - the rapid destruction of the entire architecture of world trade in the form in which it has developed at a record pace over the past half century, ”he wrote in his Telegram channel.

Medvedev focused on the fact that for the United States, as "the main instigator of a hybrid war against Russia", the consequences would be less catastrophic.

Earlier, the European Union approved the eighth package of sanctions against Russia, including a ceiling on oil prices.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said that Moscow's response to the EU's oil price ceiling will be to reorient itself towards countries that are ready to cooperate with Russia.
