The US authorities will for some time remove from the agenda the question of introducing another package of restrictive measures against our country.. The president of the American Chamber of Commerce in Russia (AmCham), Alexis Rodzianko, told journalists about this.. According to him, the Congress is unlikely to adopt laws on new sanctions against Russia before March or April next year.. In addition, measures for the use of chemical weapons may also be postponed amid a decrease in the degree of anti-Kremlin rhetoric.. "Laws on sanctions against Russia now are not considered in a special order. They must undergo normal procedures for discussion, revision, consultation.. Time is needed for this, and at the same time there are less emotions, "Rodzianko quoted the Russian Spring edition as saying.. He clarified that preliminary findings indicate the absence of Moscow’s interference in the mid-term elections in the United States.. Therefore, increasing pressure does not seem likely now.. In addition, according to the head of AmCham, the toughest package of sanctions is not being discussed at all, which would block the operations of a number of large Russian banks.. Earlier, Rodzianko stated that the second wave of US sanctions against the Russian Federation in connection with the poisoning of the former GRU officer Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia is inevitable. “Probably, yes, because it is written in the law and the decision is announced, now it remains only to wait what will be selected from this list and how it will look,” he said (quoted from RIA Novosti). The imposition of sanctions in something will help both American and Russian businesses. This step does not improve the situation, but at least clarifies it.. "And now the situation is full of expectations of the unknown, people should take into account in their planning, in their scenarios, all the options, and especially the options that are written on paper, which may have the force of law," said the head of the chamber. To this, he added that the introduction of sanctions against state-owned banks in terms of operations with dollars and servicing the state debt of Russia looks "extremely unlikely," since this is "not beneficial to anyone.". On the eve of Washington imposed sanctions against Russian companies Global Vision Group and Promsriereimport for the supply of oil from Iran to Syria. The Russian Foreign Ministry didn’t react immediately, saying that the US authorities actually accused our country of supporting terrorists and trying to prevent the republic from being restored..

"The main reasons for the introduction of sanctions are rooted in domestic political discord in the United States, when each side seeks to earn points in any way, including in the international direction. The result is clumsy, "- said in a commentary on the website of the Foreign Ministry. Trying to put pressure on Russia, “Washington repeatedly demonstrates its inability to force our country to change its independent line on the world stage,” the Foreign Ministry added..
