G7 countries will announce a ban on gold imports from Russia – Biden
At the summit, the leaders of the G7 countries plan to announce a ban on imports of gold mined in Russia. This step will deprive the aggressor country of multibillion-dollar revenues, through which it finances a full-scale war in Ukraine.
This was announced by the President of the United States of America, Joe Biden. According to him, imports of Russian gold constitute a significant part of exports and allow Russia to receive huge revenues.
– The U.S. has imposed unprecedented costs on Putin to deprive him of the revenues needed to finance the war against Ukraine. Together, the G7 will announce that we will ban imports of Russian gold, a significant export that brings Russia tens of billions of dollars, – Biden stressed.
According to foreign publications, gold imports are Russia’s second-largest export commodity after energy products. According to unofficial information, the G7 wants to announce other sanctions against the aggressor country.
The G7 foreign ministers called on Russia to stop its full-scale armed aggression against civilians in Ukraine and to open our ports to allow the export of agricultural goods to other countries to prevent a global famine.
