Georgian political scientist, head of the Centre for global studies Nana Devdariani considers taken by the West in connection with the situation around Ukraine anti-punishment meaningless, because They are unlikely to lead to the weakening of Russia, the losses are the same in the end, the European farmers.
As said the scientist on Thursday in the explanation of the Agency " news-Georgia ", these punishments imposed by the United States. However, she recalled that " States trade with Russia trade And economic relations is not as advanced As it is in countries of the European Union ".
" in practice it turns out that punishment suffers not so much Russia as the EU, " stated Devdariani, And most importantly - " ordinary citizens, in particular producers, farmers ".
" probably about 400 billion (euros) loss already suffered EU countries. If They are going to weaken the Russian Federation, it is unlikely to succeed. Incomes have the opportunity to fall for some time, but the lack of (Western) products that arose very quickly filled by other countries. Always is an alternative where it comes from product. So sense in these sanctions quite a bit, " believes Tbilisi specialist.
however, said Devdariani, " about what punishment the EU against Russia imposed on US, openly a number of Western politicians And political scientists." They (EU) are not independent. And this discontent that EU countries do not have the ability to act independently, it sounds a long time ", - said the head of the Georgian Center for global studies.
At the same time, her expressions, those who imposed the punishment, " does not want to observe the main problem ".
" Ukraine And the European Union do the same mistakes that we (the Georgians) some time ago made concerning Abkhazia And South Ossetia. After such heavy bombing of military attacks, shooting people - As They (the authorities in Kiev) is going to convince the population of the South-East of Ukraine to live in the same state? The problem is not so much in Russia as in the population, which does not recognize the results of the revolution in Kiev, which was promoted by the West, " said Nana Devdariani.
Western countries since March has repeatedly imposed punishment on a number of Russian politicians, businessmen And organizations because of the position of Russia in Ukraine. The last case of the use of such practices began in December limits, when the head of the U.S. announced an economic blockade of the Crimea, and in the sanctions List included a number of famous figures from the Crimea And Eastern Ukraine.
