Moscow, Russian President Vladimir Putin accused the United State of America of attempting to undermine his country’s economy though imposing new sanctions, affirming that all US attempts to isolate Russia have failed.
Prior to his anticipated visit to North Korea today, Putin said the US tries to undermine the Russian economy through imposing new sanctions and instigating social and political tensions in Russia, the objective, he said, is to inflict a strategic defeat upon Russia and subsequently perpetuate the conflict in Ukraine.

For that end, Russia will embark on developing alternative mechanisms for trade and mutual settlements that are not controlled by the West, Putin added, affirming that a structure of equal and indivisible security will be built in Eurasia.
