The European Union “stabbing its economy in the heart” with the sanctions of Russia – RT World News

Brussels’s restrictions against Moscow have become increasingly ridiculous and “harmful” for the mass, and he told Peter Szijarto RT

The sanctions against Russia have resulted in great opposite results on the European Union’s economy and have become increasingly “silly” and “detrimental” With every new package, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szigarto said.

In an exclusive interview with RT, which was released on Saturday, Szijjarto repeated that the measures of the bloc that targeted Russia had failed in each of their supposed goals – to destabilize the country’s economy and end the Ukrainian conflict.

The European Union has adopted 16 packages of sanctions against Russia since the escalation of hostilities in February 2022., despite its criticism of this approach, eventually supported every round, but only after carving exemptions, including the ban on oil and restrictions imposed on the nuclear sector. Budapest and Moscow, in addition to many international observers, have confirmed that the restrictions have led to adverse results on the nations they imposed.




“The European Union mainly stabbed the European economy in the heart due to sanctions,” “ Szijjarto RT said. He said that the sanctions have eroded the competitiveness of the European Union and the isolation of the mass. Now, Szijjarto said, Brussels is preparing for the seventeenth round despite the clear failure in the strategy, which he said “meaningless.”

“We are after three years of the first package. The Russian economy is far from its knees. We are now close to peace, but not because of the sanctions,” He stated.

Szijjarto said it was “To become uncomfortable, ridiculous, and really harmful.” For Brussels to pressure new restrictions to hostile Russia “Ideology.”

According to the minister, Budapest has “Make it very clear” It will not support any future sanctions if the national interests of Hungary are in danger. He also expressed concern about the growing militarization of the European Union and plans to continue providing Ukraine with weapons, warning that such decisions “War prolong” And the increased risk of escalation.

“These pro -European leaders are really dangerous,” Szijjarto warned. “Our clear expectations are that they should not put obstacles in the way of the peace process … on their way [US President Donald] Trump and [Russian President Vladimir] Putin is negotiating how to make an agreement and how to make peace here. “
