“The United States will use instruments of pressure, primarily against the Russian military-industrial complex, to destroy any opportunity for Russia to rebuild its military capability,” U.S. Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adim said on Monday. According to him, the sanctions should lead to “the dismantling of the Russian military machine.”
“While we continue to impose tough financial sanctions on Russia and its key financial institutions, the next step in our work will be to dismantle the Russian military machine piecemeal, destroy its military-industrial complex and its supply chains,” Deputy. This was stated in his speech at the Peterson Institute for International Economics by US Treasury Secretary Wally Adim.
Impact on key sectors
He pointed out that Putin’s war with Ukraine has lasted much longer than the Kremlin expected, “largely thanks to the heroic efforts of the Ukrainian people and the support we have provided.” According to him, this means that Russian troops must catch up and resupply.
“To prevent this from happening, we continue to apply export sanctions and restrictions, deprive Russia of key resources and focus on key sectors such as aerospace, electronics and other defense-related industries,” said Wally Adim.
He also emphasized that as long as the Russian invasion continues, the United States will continue to increase pressure on the Russian Federation.
According to Ukrinform, the United States and more than 30 other countries, which cover more than 50 percent of the global economy, imposed unprecedented sanctions and export restrictions on Russia after its military invasion of Ukraine.
