The United States can increase the pressure on the Russian Federation if the meeting of the US and Russian presidents in Alaska will not succeed. This was declared by US Finance Minister Scott Immentin in an interview with Bloomberg TV.

We have introduced secondary tasks to India to buy Russian oil. And I may think that if things get worse, sanctions or secondary missions may be increased, he said, the head of the US Department of Finance.
Immotrent acknowledged that sanctions may be strengthened or weakened. In addition, they may have limited time and may not be limited. According to him, everything will depend on the way Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump's meeting in Alaska takes place on August 15.
In addition, immortality repeated the call for European countries to participate in secondary missions of the United States against the Russian Federation. He stated that now the moment of the truth has come – “or action or silence.”
Earlier, Donald Trump admitted that he could leave the negotiation process to resolve the Ukrainian conflict after meeting Vladimir Putin in Alaska. The head of the White House noted that he was wrapping the Muslims' in minutes to understand whether he could agree in Ukraine.
