MOSCOW Jan 27 (TNS): Russia has condemned the new US economic sanctions against it.
In a statement, head of the lower house of Russian parliament’s foreign affairs committee Leonid Slutsky said the sanctions are a destructive step, which will further worsen relations between the two countries.
Earlier, the United States added Russian officials and energy firms to a sanctions blacklist, including some that were involved in the delivery of Siemens gas turbines to Crimea.
