President Putin mocks US sanctions, vows not to retaliate

Vladimir Putin has mocked US sanctions imposed on Russia, saying he will open an account at US-sanctioned Rossiya Bank. During a meeting with the country's senior security officials he added that he won’t introduce a visa regime with Ukraine.

Putin treated with irony the recent sanctions imposed on certain Russian lawmakers.

“Yes, these are those so-called ‘polite people in camouflage with guns’,” ironically said Putin hinting at Western accusations that Russian soldiers have taken bases in Crimea.

“Look at them, typical Moskals [pejorative term for Russians – ED.],” he added, pointing at US sanctioned prominent businessmen Arkady and Boris Rotenberg, Gennady Timchenko, head of the Volga Group and Yury Kovalchuk, the owner of Rossiya Bank. “I need to avoid these citizens as they are ‘compromising the country’.”

On Thursday the US expanded its sanctions list by adding 20 more names. US President Barack Obama announced a new executive order imposing further sanctions on top Russian officials and businessmen.

Aleksey Gromov, First Deputy Head of the Presidential Administration; Sergey Ivanov, Chief of Staff of the Presidential Executive Office; and Sergey Naryshkin, Speaker of the State Duma, the lower chamber of the Russian Parliament, are among those mentioned. Russian Railways President Vladimir Yakunin is also on the list.

The order also allows for measures against Russian energy, mining, defense, and engineering sectors.

Putin also commented on the latest sanction of the US authorities that concerned Russia’s Rossiya Bank, to which international payment systems Visa and MasterCard stopped serving clients on Friday.

The Russian president said he will get his salary via the sanctioned bank.

“I’ve already said that I was going to open an account in this bank, more than that I asked for my salary to be transferred to this account,” he said.

Putin added that Russian authorities should provide any possible support for the clients of the blocked Rossiya Bank, as this “finance establishment has nothing to do with Ukraine crisis.”

“The clients of the bank must be taken under our protection. We also should make sure that neither clients nor the bank will sustain any negative outcome from this situation,” he added.

Obama looking like a chump against this hard as nails mofo. He's trying to defuse the situation with brains when it's clear Russia is using brawn.

If Putin wanted to, he could set into motion the imminent end of the US dollar. There are plenty of countries ready to follow suit if he decided to make a real move.

You do realize America wasn't even a superpower during the time of Sitting Bull?
And genocide of Indians was happening well before that...one of the main reasons why the spanish and Portuguese introduced slavery into their New-Found-Land (South, not North) was bcause natives were dying out or were killed off...Just like they did with the Amerindian populations like the Inca.

 And you do realize this thing called, "sarcasm"?

aha, meaning that it s ok to kill indigens because americnuts wasnt a superpower, and killing happened before? - u really are dumb

They did the exact same thing to each other (and much worse) for centuries, but we're bad guys when we get in on the act?

[FermiDirac]

The biggest question though, do you think Putin owns a mansion or a French castle in Obozo's head?

I'm not sure if you're aware of the fact that there were hundreds of tribes in America, many of them were constantly at war with each other. Had any one tribe had the means they would have done the same thing Americans did.

Europeans and Americans aren't unique or sadistic people. They just happened to be better at doing what all humans do, so they take the blame for all historical nastiness when we should be thanking them.

so its ok  to be better at doing what all humans do= killing, and we should thank the scum of europe for killing peaceful natives (how is 9/11 integreting in this concept of being good at what all humans do? should we thank them for their performance?)
