According to Anton Morozov, a member of the State Duma Committee on Foreign Affairs, a member of the LDPR faction, it is possible that this initiative could turn into a bill. “Unfortunately, American congressmen are in an information vacuum, in isolation, which they themselves arranged by refusing to inter-parliamentary contacts with the Russian Federation. They don’t own the real situation that has developed in our country and he judges it only by speculation and fake news, which is circulated by the Western media, ”Morozov said. He called this approach in bilateral relations unconstructive. Moreover, the new sanctions will not cause significant damage to Russia, the deputy believes. “We are a large, self-sufficient country and are used to living in conditions of sanctions. No additional restrictions will significantly restrain us, ”the parliamentarian stressed. At the same time, he called on congressmen to make decisions more thoughtfully and carefully and make statements based on personal contacts, and not on the basis of rumors and speculation.
