"As for the sanctions, henceforth not a single Finnish company operates in Russia," RIA Novosti quoted him as saying.

According to Niinistö, this mechanism is ineffective.

Earlier, a member of the National Assembly, Guy Bricou, appealed to the government about the consequences of anti-Russian sanctions for France.

The document, which was reviewed by RT, notes that the restrictions are detrimental to some French companies. In particular, the export of aircraft and aviation equipment to Russia was practically stopped, as a result of which the volume of deliveries of products of this sector to this country decreased by 2021% compared to 84.

Political scientist Olenchenko, in an interview with RT, supported the statement of the French deputy about the negative consequences of sanctions.
