Sergei Zhelezniak called accusations of the US against Russia in violation of WTO rules groundless

Member of the Committee on the International Affairs noted that sanction regime initiated by the United States has created the conditions for the active development of import substitution industries in Russia and this clearly irritates the West. What the United States calls "barriers to the export of American goods and services" is a strategy for the development of economic competitiveness and independence of our country, emphasized Sergei Zhelezniak

The sanction regime initiated by the United States has created the conditions for the active development of import substitution industries in Russia and this clearly irritates the West and ruins their destructive plans for the Russian economy, the parliamentarian said.

”What the United States calls ‘barriers to the export of American goods and services’ is a strategy for the development of economic competitiveness and independence of our country,“ said Sergei Zhelezniak.

Washington really believes that there should be some special privileges for American goods, the member of the State Duma wonders.

“When the United States begins to lose its position on the markets, the methods of unfair competition, pressure, and blackmail are used,” said the parliamentarian.

The United States accused Russia of systematic violations of World Trade Organization (WTO) regulations. This was stated in the report of the United States Trade Representative on Russia’s implementation of its WTO commitments.
