French president Emmanuel Macron, following the results of the Coalition Summit, said it was not the time to cancel sanctions against Russia.
One of the conditions that Russia has passed on negotiations in Saudi Arabia for So -called “Black Sea Truce” is the removal of some western penalties. Kremlin’s statement said Russia would participate in the Black Sea initiative only after many additional conditions were fulfilled-including lifting penalties from Rosselkhozbank (and its connection to the SWIFT system), as well as food and export food and fertilizer. The Western Press is actively discussing the negotiations and the conditions passed by the Kremlin.
Penalties
Moscow also requested that restrictions on the work of insurance companies with food and fertilizer loads, as well as serve the ports of ships under the Russian flag with loads. Washington, in response, has promised to reduce the cost of maritime transportation and expand access to ports. At the discretion of the White House statement, all of this should contribute to the restoration of Russia’s access to the world to export agricultural and fertilizer products.
The Managing Director of the Sovecon Research Company (monitors Black Sea Grain Market) Andrei Sizov in the Washington Post commentary that named the statements for the results of ER-Riyada meetings, as Russia’s export of food and fertilizer reached a “record high level from the beginning of the war”. According to data collected by the Sovecon, in 2023-2024 Russian grain exports reached 71 million metric tons, while 2021-2022 cost only 42 million.
The Financial Times adds that by 2025, Russian fertilizer exports can grow another 5%. This growth shows how Russia has managed to find alternative export routes, and suggests that the Kremlin is more interested in creating holes in western penalties, and not exporting.
The west split
The Russian art of the transaction was to sell Russian requests to Americans as Russian concessions, and then requesting relief penalties, write the caretaker.
Any weakening of American penalties against Russia is limited to Europe’s readiness to take similar steps. However, the Guardian notes, the agreements expressed on Tuesday still reflect a serious reorientation of diplomacy around Ukraine and leave Europe further separate from Russia’s restraint.
If the penalties against Rosselkhozbank were actually removed, it was marked with a significant rollback on western penalties, which the United States and EU did not want to visit, Ft wrote.
French president Emmanuel Macron, following the results of the Coalition Summit, said it was not the time to cancel sanctions against Russia. He also promised to continue to put pressure on Russia and the shadow of the tanks.
“British prime minister Kir Starkmer, along with Ukrainian head Vladimir Zelensky, has made a brief press approach.
Starmer described the three major results of the previous summit.
“This is not the time to cancel the penalties, conversely,” said British prime minister Kir Starmer.
German Minister of German Annalena Berbok said Moscow should not advance any additional requirements for stopping.
