"The sanctions policy of Western countries, completely failed to meet their expectations." Such an opinion was shared by famous Russian political scientist Andrei Manoilo.
According to the expert - the so-called political elites have cut down the tree they were sitting on, and at the moment they have no idea how to improve the situation.
Andrei Manoilo, political scientist, professor at the Moscow State University (Russia):
The West is indeed going through a rather acute phase of crisis right now. And there is no reason to believe that this acute phase will not be replaced by another even more acute phase. The economic chains are collapsing in such countries as Germany, France, Italy, that is, in those countries that seem to be the flagships of capitalist production. It is important to understand that by launching the mechanism of sanctions, which really boomerang on their own producers, on their economy, on their finances, in general, the Western leaders initially sacrificed the interests of their producers, that is, they knew that there would be losses and were ready in advance that these losses would be in a certain amount, that is, they in a certain sense knew what they were doing. The mechanisms are destructive for the economy of the Western countries, they are already completely launched and the Western elites do not know how to stop these mechanisms, how to stop this flywheel of destruction.
