Russia is ready to step up cooperation with the Global South and BRICS to counter the illegal U.S. sanctions pressure, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Monday.
“Nevertheless, we believe that no tariff wars and sanctions can alter the inevitable course of history.
“We have a vast network of partners, like-minded people, and allies within the Global South, particularly among BRICS countries, who share this perspective.
“We are ready to step up cooperation with them to counteract illegal unilateral sanctions and to establish a truly multilateral, just, and equitable global order,” Zakharova said.
Such U.S. policy is a direct encroachment on the national sovereignty of states, constituting interference in the domestic affairs of other nations, the spokeswoman said.
“Sanctions and restrictions are a regrettable reality of the current historical stage, impacting the entire globe.
“Washington cannot accept the loss of its hegemony in the emerging multipolar world order and continues to pursue a neocolonial policy to uphold its dominance, using politicised economic.
“Pressures against those who resist its agenda on the international stage,” she said.
