You're reading: Moscow’s response to US anti-Russian sanctions bill to depend on its final edition

Moscow will respond to the U.S. anti-Russian sanctions at some point but what this response will exactly be like depends on the final edition of the U.S. bill regarding the sanctions, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

“You know that we behave in a very restrained and patient manner but at some point one has to respond. It is impossible to endlessly suffer a certain kind of impudence towards our country,” Putin said at a news conference following his talks with Finnish President Sauli Niinisto.

“As to when to expect a response and what the response is going to be like will depend on the form in which we will finally see that law the Senate is currently discussing,” Putin added.
