«Necessary to definitely and demonstratively put Russia into a «special quarantine»: Podolyak explained what opportunities the status of a terrorist country will close for the Russian Federation
Mykhailo Podolyak said what opportunities the status of a terrorist country will close for Russia.
Mykhailo Podolyak, the adviser to the head of the President’s Office, noted that the status of Russia as a terrorist country will close many opportunities for it – trade with «neutral countries», initiatives on international platforms.
Mykhailo Podolyak wrote about this on Twitter.
«The world is certainly changing fast. And he declares his correct positions more and more clearly. One such position is to define Russia de/jure as a terrorist country or (at least for a start!) as a country sponsoring terrorism. De/facto it has already been absolutely proven. But the «de/jure» status will finally close many important opportunities for Russia: trade with «neutral countries», participation in global events, and initiative in international platforms.» – he emphasized.
Mykhailo Podolyak noted that «yesterday the democracies were afraid to talk about it – now accelerated preparation for the relevant legal decisions is underway.»
«The only regret is that it is too slow. It is necessary to definitely and demonstratively put Russia into a «special quarantine» and sharply limit the opportunities to spread its poison». – he summarized.
