The US policy of imposing economic pressure on Russia will not bring positive outcomes because Moscow has found ways to adapt to the restrictive measures and compensate for any losses, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said at a meeting with the business community of the US state of Utah on Tuesday.

SALT LAKE CITY (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 24th October, 2018) The US policy of imposing economic pressure on Russia will not bring positive outcomes because Moscow has found ways to adapt to the restrictive measures and compensate for any losses, Russian Ambassador to the United States Anatoly Antonov said at a meeting with the business community of the US state of Utah on Tuesday.

"I would like to emphasize, that pressuring Russia with sanctions will not give positive results," Antonov said. "However, our arguments are not being heard. The US administration keeps talking about increasing the amount of restrictions."
