MOSCOW: Russia’s economy has shown immunity to sanctions, which is recognized by the US among others, Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said.
"Russia’s economy has shown its immunity, and in this case, it has been stated not by us but by US representatives. Russia’s economy has demonstrated its immunity, it has adjusted and it continues developing," he said when asked to comment on the new package of sanctions by TASS.
US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan admitted earlier that Russia’s economy remained stable despite sanctions
