OREANDA-NEWS. Press Secretary of the President of Russia Dmitry Peskov said that the Kremlin is certainly concerned about the likely sanctions from the United States. He announced this during a briefing.

According to him, the sanctions behavior of the American side is completely unpredictable.

“The United States maintains its unpredictability internationally in this regard. There are plans, plans for hedging risks and minimizing the consequences of such unpredictable actions,” Peskov explained.

Also, the press secretary of the Russian head recalled that Moscow calls for the abandonment of provocations with such restrictions.

“But I repeat once again: we consistently call on the United States to abandon provocative actions and escalate tensions on the European continent,” Peskov added.

Earlier it was reported that the US Senate may agree on sanctions against Russia this week. Democrat Chris Murphy said final details could be agreed "in the next day or so."

Also, the American leader Joe Biden threatened Russian President Vladimir Putin with sanctions.
