Putin's FIERY Retaliation Against U.S. Over Trump Sanctions On Russia; 'Your Actions Won't Stop Us'

Putin's FIERY Retaliation Against U.S. Over Trump Sanctions On Russia; 'Your Actions Won't Stop Us' Russia led by President Vladimir Putin has slammed Washington’s latest sanctions on its energy giants Rosneft and Lukoil, calling them “counterproductive” and warning they will backfire on the global economy. Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova said the move will not “coerce Moscow into abandoning its national interests” and instead will deepen the ongoing energy crisis. The new U.S. measures target Russia’s oil exports and financial networks, part of Washington’s wider effort to pressure the Kremlin over its actions in Ukraine. Moscow insists the sanctions will only strengthen its resolve and accelerate its pivot toward Asian and Global South energy markets.
