Experts have noticed that no country has tried to introduce such a comprehensive package of sanctions against Russia before.
Recently, the United States announced a new package of sanctions against Russia in the event of its invasion of Ukraine, which, among other things, includes sanctions against the country’s leader Vladimir Putin personally.
Analysts of The New York Times have made a forecast of how these sanctions will affect the global financial system. And the prognosis is quite sad.
Experts have noticed that no country has tried to introduce such an extensive package of sanctions against Russia before.
It is noted that this may lead to disorder in the economies of developed countries, especially those located in Europe, since the Kremlin’s retaliatory measures will follow the US sanctions.
Following the European economy, the world economy will also be shaken.
One example of retaliatory sanctions is the delineation of gas supplies to Europe.
In turn, Politico journalist Matthew Karnichnig believes that anti-Russian sanctions will lead to an increase in world commodity prices, followed by high inflation, financial panic and a stock market crash.
Fyodor Lukyanov, Director of Scientific Work at the Valdai International Discussion Club, partially agreed with the forecast of foreign analysts.
In his opinion, the United States uses sanctions as a game of retention, as well as to replace the conflict. However, none of them seeks to unleash hostilities, the expert is sure.
Earlier, Topnews wrote that the United States decided not to impose sanctions against Putin for a “technical” reason.
