MOSCOW, OCTOBER 17 /SRNA/ – US President Donald Trump's decision to suspend the implementation of legislation regarding sanctions against Russia demonstrates the seriousness of Washington's intent to help find a solution to the conflict in Ukraine, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told RIA Novosti.


He said that, following Trump's decision, one could expect "wailing" from the EU.

In a new executive order, Trump declined to implement previously planned new sanctions against Russian officials, banks, and organizations stemming from the so-called Graham Act, which included a ban on new US investments in Russia and provisions to enforce a ban on the import of Russian uranium.
