The impact of new US sanctions against Russia will not be significant. This convinced the program director of the international discussion club "Valdai" Yaroslav Lissovolik. In his opinion, the negative peak is passed, then the situation will begin to equalize, no matter how the events develop. "Financial markets have largely adapted to this negative pressure. We saw the stabilization of the exchange rate last week, by the end of the week there was even some strengthening of the ruble and other segments of the financial market, "recalled the expert from RIA Novosti.. In addition, the "softening factor" can be called and high oil prices: "At the moment they are more than comfortable for the budget, and in general for the macroeconomic background.

This factor largely compensates for the negative, which comes from various kinds of restrictions, "- commented Lissovolik. On the eve of the US permanent representative to the United Nations Nikki Haley threatened Moscow with new sanctions for supporting the regime of Bashar Assad in Syria. A number of analysts hurried to predict a gloomy future for Russia: the fall of the ruble and shares of large enterprises.

Earlier, financial analyst, Deutsche Bank AG ex-strategist John Paul Smith warned the world business from buying cheap shares of "Rusal", which fell under American sanctions, as well as other Russian assets. Say, this acquisition can come out sideways to righteous Western players, as Washington and its allies are not going to stop in their sanctions pressure on Russia. In the meantime, Moscow is preparing a response to US sanctions. Then it is still unknown who owns whose shares will be in burnout.
