US sanctions will not do much harm to the Russian defense industry. The blow of the American authorities on this industry, which, according to their plan, was supposed to be "crushing", is unlikely to have a significant impact on it.

The Russian authorities, on behalf of Vladimir Putin, are compiling a list of unfriendly countries. For the first time, such a formulation was voiced a year ago and became a response to Western sanctions and diplomatic scandals unleashed by them. Then the United States and the Czech Republic were recognized as enemies. However, the new list will have nothing to do with the old one, experts say.
