Russian President Vladimir Putin has deplored a new round of US sanctions on his country, saying Moscow will definitively respond to the embargoes if they are implemented. “It's impossible to endlessly tolerate this kind of insolence towards our country,” Putin said on Thursday, referring to a recent vote in the US House of Representatives, where lawmakers endorsed an anti-Russia sanctions bill. Putin, who was speaking at a joint press conference with Finnish President Sauli Niinisto in Savonlinna, said Russia’s patience with the US was waning as Washington was continuing to impose back-to-back sanctions on Moscow.

Russia has been under a series of US sanctions since a crisis began in Ukraine in 2014. The new measures, however, come after Russia was accused of interfering in the US presidential election last year. Moscow denies any involvement in both cases. Officials in Moscow say new US bans on Russia would harm the interests of both nations. In his remarks, Putin said investigations into alleged collusion between Russian officials and Trump’s campaign aides in last year’s elections were a sign of "a rise in anti-Russian hysteria" in the US. He called the case all but a “battle between President Trump and his political opponents,” adding that "Russian-US relations are being sacrificed to resolve questions of domestic politics.” Elsewhere in his remarks, Putin said warmer ties between Washington and Moscow would help the two sides achieve better results in the “fight with terrorism,” adding that if the two act in agreement, they “could solve very acute problems much more effectively.” Poster Comment: Americans, particularly business, don't want the sanctions. Congress is imposing them to help Israel in its attempt to coerce Russia to stop helping Syria, Iran and Russian rebels in Ukraine (which Israel wants as a "second" homeland and back-door entry into EU-NATO) Congress is obliged to support Israel because its Democrat and Republican members got elected largely with the strategic support of the Israel lobby and Jew-controlled media. Two ways Putin can get sanctions dropped: Stop allying with Israel's enemies, Syria, Iran and east-Ukraine Russian rebels, or call on expatriates (mostly second, third generation) in America to nominate and campaign for America-first congressional candidates, not Israel-first as with the Israeli lobby's choices. This will require some of Russia's oil billions for campaigning and takeover of mainstream media from the Jews (firing all Sayanim) No small task but otherwise Putin is just "whistling up the wind."

Russia also said it would seize two U.S. diplomatic properties in retaliation to the legislation. U.S. Constitution - Article IV, Section 4: NO BORDERS + NO LAWS = NO COUNTRY
Israel wants the sanctions to prod Putin to stop supporting Syria and Iran. The near unanimity of the vote indicates how dependent Congress members are on election campaign support from the Israeli lobby. And these toadies are making a big deal about Putin's support for Trump
