This was reported by the official news channel of the Russian Embassy in the United States.

"Doesn't the administration understand that it is hitting its own long-term goals with its steps?" said Antonov.

According to him, the emerging economies in the world are aware of the harm that US policy causes to their vital interests.

The Russian ambassador also spoke about the next package of anti-Russian sanctions, noting that it is a repetition of "what has already been repeatedly passed."

Earlier, Anatoly Antonov stressed that the United States deliberately ignores the "package" nature of the grain deal.

He also said that the CIA's appeal to the Russians was part of a coordinated campaign against Russia.
