The Russian Prime Minister said again to the Russian news agency TASS that the decision on the boycott will not be taken before August. In August it will certainly be either extended, modified or lifted. “We’ll make this decision based on our national interests,” said Medvedev. “We were forced to adopt these measures due to the actions of neighbouring countries and trading partners, so it also depends on the decisions they make.” According to the Prime Minister, the measures have been positive for Russia to develop its domestic potential.
