(ANSA) - WASHINGTON, 08 JAN - The Biden administration and its allies are working to develop a series of very severe financial, technological and military sanctions against Russia.

Punitive measures that would take effect immediately after a possible invasion of Ukraine.

It brings the New York Times on the eve of the start of the Geneva talks between Moscow and Washington.

The goal is to make it clear to Russian President Vladimir Putin what the cost will be to pay for a forceful action against Kiev.


    In particular, the NYT always reports, the sanctions on the study of Washington and its allies will be aimed at cutting the main Russian financial institutions out of all global transactions, at imposing an embargo on 'made in USA' technology aimed at the defense and aerospace sectors. and of the consumer industry, to arm the groups of Ukrainian insurgents who want to start a guerrilla action against the military occupation of Moscow.


    Among the actions on the financial front there could be the exclusion of Russia from the Swift system which regulates financial transactions between more than 1,100 banks in 200 countries, as happened with Iran.

But no decision would have been made yet.

"This is a high-impact plan - a source from the Biden administration explains to the New York Times - that rapid response that did not come in 2014", the year of the Russian occupation of the Crimean peninsula.
