MOSCOW (Sputnik) – Russia is not guided by the faulty logic of responding in kind to the United States’ sanctions, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov told Chinese and Japanese media outlets in an interview.
“We do not want to turn relations with the US into a zero-sum game. We are not guided by a misguided logic of ‘measures – countermeasures’ when, regardless of the consequences only because our interests are damaged or hostile forces influence Russia, we should repay in kind,” Ryabkov said.
The US Treasury Department added four Russian citizens and one Russian company to its North Korea-related sanctions list on Tuesday. The sanctions freeze all of the individuals’ and entities’ assets subject to US jurisdiction and generally prohibit US persons from doing business with them.
Ryabkov said Washington has placed sanctions on a total of close to 400 Russian citizens and 200 entities overall.

Would be really interesting to expose American companies still doing business with Russia etc… would/could you do that, let the world see their fraud?
Whilst WWII was going on and after the US had ‘come to our aid’, US corporations were still doing business with German corporations. Business is always kept separate from politics.
Thats why the US kept away from bombing factories mostly owned by US Jews. Had to laugh at when the US hauled the food into Berlin,turns out it wasn’t what went in that mattered its what was flown out, all the Generals Booty

I see it differently though; it’s the sanctions that are fraudulent, not those who continue to do business with a country that is, despite what the warmongering trillionaires’ propaganda press keeps screaming, OUR ALLY.
Your view makes sense.
