The head of the State Duma’s foreign relations committee has said new anti-Russian sanctions would only cause further alienation between Russia and the West without giving any help to Ukraine.
“If the West imposes new sanctions on Russia it would not
help Ukraine, but it would lead to Russia’s distancing from the
West in politics and economy,” MP Aleksey Pushkov (United
Russia) wrote in his Twitter microblog.
The statement came after CNN reported the United States and the
European Union are finalizing preparations for a new package of
anti-Russian sanctions. These could be introduced should another
escalation of the Ukrainian conflict occur.
Earlier this month, top Russian officials, including Prime
Minister Dmitry Medvedev, the head of the Presidential
Administration, Sergey Ivanov, and presidential spokesman Dmitry
Peskov warned Russia would prolong its counter-sanctions if
Western nations persist in their anti-Russian policies.
Prime Minister Medvedev said in a public statement in April that
the sanctions situation demonstrated Russian society and
authorities can jointly withstand any political or economic
pressure from abroad.
MP Pushkov made a similar statement in mid-May when he addressed
the Lower House plenary session: “After the 70th anniversary
of the Great Victory [in WWII] it has become evident that the
policy of maximum political isolation of Russia is not yielding
the expected results,” he said. “If today, after May 9,
Obama again claims he has isolated Russia, he will simply be
laughed at,” he added.

if new anti-Russian sanctions are introduced
Russia currently bans the imports of meat, poultry and fish,
cheese, milk, fruit and vegetables from the United States, EU
countries, Australia, Canada and Norway. The embargo was
introduced in August last year for a one-year term, with possible
prolongation if the situation doesn’t improve.
Russia has also blacklisted a number of Western officials and
politicians known for their persistent anti-Russian stance. The
list of people subject to sanctions was sent to the EU on
condition of non-disclosure, but was leaked almost immediately to
press, which greatly disappointed Russian diplomats.
