"We condemn them [sanctions], we consider them illegitimate. The changes sought by the [Washington] authors of the sanctions policy are doomed to failure. These sanctions will not produce the results sought by those who want to weaken Russia. This is the American Groundhog Day, frightening in its stupidity and absurdity - endless American stepping on the same rake," the senior diplomat said, commenting on the new US sanctions.
According to Ryabkov, Washington is only strengthening Russia's determination to move forward. "Both in terms of consolidating society and achieving all the goals of the special military operation we've set ourselves," TASS quoted the senior diplomat as saying.
On July 20, the US authorities sanctioned five more Russian banks. Thus, the list now includes banks Tinkoff, Loko Bank, St. Petersburg Social Commercial Bank, Solidarnost and Unistream. Washington expects that this will limit Moscow's access to the global financial system.
