Russian President Vladimir Putin will comment on US and NATO responses to Moscow’s security assurance proposals when deemed necessary.
This was stated by his spokesman Dmitry Peskov, but did not specify when the Russian head of state will speak. “I can’t tell you the exact date,” he added.
Moscow has called on Washington and its European allies to abandon the course of escalating tensions around Ukraine and to take a constructive, calm and measured stance, a Kremlin spokesman said.
If London attacks Russian business, Moscow will retaliate solely in the interests of its own interests, Peskov assured. Earlier in the day, Britain’s Times quoted cabinet sources today as saying the government would present a new package of anti-Russian sanctions today, which could affect assets of Russian energy companies and individuals of “strategic importance” to Russian authorities. .
London is preparing new sanctions for Putin’s oligarchs in the Kingdom
Britain’s statements about new sanctions against Russia are worrying for Russian companies, demonstrating “London’s rather unpredictability and perhaps a cause for serious concern for international financial and business structures in general,” Putin’s spokesman added. According to him, these statements undermine the investment attractiveness of the kingdom.
Tonight, Putin will hold an international telephone conversation, Peskov said, but did not answer a question whether the Russian leader will talk to British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Earlier, the prime minister’s office said Johnson was counting on talking to Putin on the phone this week. The last time the two had such a conversation was on December 13, 2021.
