MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Russia is working on a new system of economic ties, since the previous one turned out to be dangerous, but it does not seek to undermine US dominance in the global financial system, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has told US media.
The newspaper wrote in an article published on Saturday that Russia was getting increasingly confident that strengthening relations with China and the Global South will allow it to challenge the US-dominated international financial system. Peskov denied this claim and said that actions taken by the Western powers themselves undermine trust in the current system.
"[Moscow] is following [the situation] carefully and building a new system of economic neurons because the previous system turned out to be unreliable, false and dangerous," Peskov was quoted as saying.
