Russia’s Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova criticized the United States for imposing politically motivated economic pressure on countries choosing independent paths. She described Trump’s tariff policy as a direct interference in national sovereignty, especially targeting Russia’s partners in the Global South. Zakharova emphasized that sanctions have become a key feature of the current global order and said Washington is pursuing a neo-colonial agenda.
