The West may either increase or partially remove economic pressure on Russia; it all depends on what Western capitals will be guided by, Sergey Naryshkin, the director of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), said in an interview with Sputnik.It all depends on what Western capitals will be guided by—either the irrational behavior based on Russophobia or they will somehow be guided by common sense and forethought, the official explained.According to the SVR director, Russia cannot be isolated in the economic sphere—the countries of the "global majority" understand their interest in continuing trade operations with Moscow, and even the most zealous lobbyists for sanctions in the West admit that the Russian economy has adapted to new conditions and is developing steadily.

West May Increase or Decrease Economic Pressure on Russia Depending on Motives: Intelligence Chief
09:27 28.01.2025 (Updated: 10:12 28.01.2025) MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Moscow has repeatedly stated that the country would cope with the sanctions pressure that the West has been exerting on Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin said that the policy of containing and weakening Russia was a long-term strategy of the West, and the sanctions have dealt a serious blow to the entire global economy.
The West may either increase or partially remove
economic pressure on Russia; it all depends on what Western capitals will be guided by, Sergey Naryshkin, the director of Russia's Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR), said in an interview with
Sputnik.
"I would say that it is possible that economic pressure against Russia will be increased, just as the measures of economic aggression from the Western bloc will be partially lifted," Naryshkin said.
It all depends on what Western capitals will be guided by—either the irrational behavior based on Russophobia or they will somehow be guided by common sense and forethought, the official explained.
According to the SVR director, Russia cannot be isolated in the economic sphere—the countries of the "global majority"
understand their interest in continuing trade operations with Moscow, and even the most zealous lobbyists for sanctions in the West admit that the Russian economy has adapted to new conditions and is developing steadily.
