The political scientist assessed the likelihood of Trump fulfilling Russia's conditions on sanctions

US President Donald Trump can fulfill Russia's conditions for easing sanctions, as this is beneficial for the United States economy. Malek Dudakov, an American political scientist, said this on Wednesday, March 26.

"I see no obstacles for Trump to announce today or tomorrow at least the suspension of sanctions against Russia in the field of food and fertilizer supplies. This is possible for obvious reasons: Trump is trying to reach an agreement as soon as possible, and Russia wants to mitigate it, because otherwise it will not be possible to restore traffic in the Black Sea," he said in a conversation with Lenta.Ru .

The political scientist noted that an increase in fertilizer exports from Russia will lead to a gradual decrease in food prices on the world market, and inflation will slow down.

"On the other hand, Trump may delay easing sanctions in order to use them as a lever of pressure on Russia. But such a strategy has no special prospects, so it would be logical to move on to a constructive agenda and change the sanctions policy," the expert concluded.

For the parties' reasons: the Russian Federation and the United States have made progress in the "Black Sea Initiative"

It became known what Moscow and Washington agreed on during 12-hour consultations in Riyadh.

Earlier that day, Maxim Chirkov, Associate Professor of the Department of Economic Policy and Economic Measurements at GUU, admitted in an interview with Izvestia that the implementation of the Black Sea initiative could significantly improve the economic situation in Russia and mitigate sanctions pressure. It will also open up new opportunities for foreign trade, especially in the agricultural sector.

Earlier, on March 25, the Kremlin reported that the Russian Federation and the United States had agreed to work on the implementation of the Black Sea initiative, which assumes that navigation safety will be ensured in the Black Sea and the use of commercial vessels for military purposes will not be allowed. 360.ru .
