A new package of Washington's restrictions and Moscow's mirror measures will accelerate the entrepreneurial team of the United States. As additional sanctions hang over the sword of Damocles, the outgoing withdrawal of American companies from Russia is not a bluff. On the threat of their flight, the head of the American Chamber of Commerce in Russia (AmCham) Alexis Rodzianko in the International Discussion Club "Valdai". "The main concern of companies is sanctions, and not only those that already exist, but the threat of additional sanctions that may be. And these threats are growing more often on the American side, but also on the part of the Russian government, "- quotes Rodzianko RIA Novosti. He drew attention to the intolerable conditions on which sanctions were doomed by business. First, it is a ban on working with banking systems. Secondly, the inability to transport by rail. Third, it is a taboo on gas from the Russian Federation. "That is, production in Russia is becoming de facto impossible," concluded the head of AmCham, adding that in general, American companies are pleased with how they are doing in Russia. "So far, this is only a threat, but it exists and hangs in the air. I often hear from companies literally the following: that the results this year are better than in the past, in the past were better than in the previous. That is, business is on the go, and well enough. But the threat that it will have to close and leave, it really exists, "the official summed up, stressing that the business continues to" grow and even invest, "despite the constant difficulties. Three weeks ago, the so-called "case of Skripal" was the reason for the introduction of the US next sanctions against the Russian Federation.

Now the Americans will not come to the aid of the Russians, unless they need urgent humanitarian support, food and agricultural products.

Overseas organizations will no longer issue loans. In addition, Washington stopped licensing our state-owned companies for the export of weapons and dual-use goods. The exception is necessary for cooperation in space and safe flights of civil aviation. In November, they threatened in the States, a new, even more stringent package of sanctions will follow.. However, in Moscow they will not keep silent. As before, they will find a worthy answer.
