西方最新制裁针对俄国国防工业
The U.S. says new Western economic sanctions against Russia for its involvement in Ukraine will target Moscow\'s defense industry and companies with close links to President Vladimir Putin.
A White House aide, deputy national security adviser Tony Blinken, told Sunday news shows in the U.S. that starting this week the latest sanctions would exert "additional pressure" on the corporate officials closest to Mr. Putin and the companies they control.
Blinken said high technology exports to the defense firms would be targeted and predicted that "all of this together is going to have an impact."
The increased sanctions are the latest attempt by the U.S. and its European allies to try to force Mr. Putin to curb Russia\'s role in eastern Ukraine and pull back its military forces from near the Russian border with Ukraine. Earlier sanctions targeted some banking activities and other corporate officials close to Mr. Putin.
Whether the sanctions are having a direct effect on the Russian economy is hard to determine. The Russian economy had been weakening even before Russia\'s stalemate with the West over Ukraine evolved, with growth expected this year to be negligible. Blinken said that Moscow\'s financial markets have dropped 22 percent since the beginning of the year, the ruble is at all-time low and investors have withdrawn $70 billion from the Russian economy.
白宫助理、副国家安全顾问布林肯星期天在美国电视新闻节目上说，从本星期开始，最新制裁将向和普京最密切的大公司官员以及他们控制的公司施加额外的压力。
布林肯说，制裁将针对向俄罗斯国防公司的高科技出口。他还预言，“这些措施加在一起将产生影响。”
新的制裁措施是美国和欧洲盟国迫使普京遏制俄罗斯在东乌克兰的作用，从俄乌边界撤出军队的最新尝试。早些时候的制裁针对一些银行活动和其他和普京关系密切的大公司官员。
很难确定这些制裁能否对俄国经济造成直接影响。在俄罗斯跟西方就乌克兰问题发生对峙之前，俄罗斯经济就已经疲弱。今年的增长预计微乎其微。布林肯说，从今年初开始俄国金融市场下跌了22%。卢布处于历史最低点。投资者已经从俄罗斯经济中撤出7百亿美元。 国防工业有哪些 国防工业 国防工业部 中国国防工业 新中国国防工业 中国国防工业发展 什么是国防科技和国防工业 国防工业院校 国防工业技术学院
