In his conviction the West won’t allow it to Russia and Azerbaijan, and the forthcoming visit of U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry to Moscow will cover that issue.

“I think “Illegal cash withdrawal” expression wasn’t proper, as is isn’t banned. There are some restrictions, however, it’s not banned, accordingly, we should touch upon raising the addressability, and as you assigned, to more boost productivity, so that there was no impression among the citizens, that this component is being completely eliminated,” the Minister said.
“We can confront, we can compete, withstand and win. We sometimes underestimate our possibilities. We have the same opinion about ourselves as our adversaries.

“However, saying that Ukraine was the main topic of the Summit will be great exaggeration. Major topic was security of the alliance. And this means—Russia. Decisions adopted in Warsaw—strengthening of NATO’s presence in the east of Europe, shift from missile defense system to initial martial readiness condition, show that they’re not going to sit with hands folded in the alliance and wait for new Russian provocations.

It’s particularly observed against the background of Georgia-NATO relations.”
