US Secretary of the Treasury Scott Bessent said the United States is ready to increase pressure on the aggressor country of russia, which will lead to a complete collapse of its economy. His words were quoted by The New York Times' economic policy reporter Alan Rapoport in his X-account on Sunday, September 7.
Bessent said the US is ready to increase pressure on russia, but for this it is necessary that these actions are supported by European partners.
"Additional secondary sanctions and tariffs on countries that buy russian oil will lead the russian economy to a "complete collapse" and put putin at the negotiating table," the US Secretary of the Treasury emphasized.
