The Deputy Secretary also detailed that Washington imported fertilizers from Russia while listing them as essential goods.

Former US colonel and Eurasia Center Vice President, Earl Rasmussen, said the European Union's latest sanctions and economic retaliation against Russia will backfire and cause a massive recession in Europe. 

Rasmussen, who previously said that US troop deployment to Ukraine deters efforts to solve the conflict, said the European sanctions against Russia will throw Europe into a "historical recession".

The colonel stated that despite repeated assurances from Biden, Washington is in no condition to replace Russia’s plentiful and cheap supplies of natural gas to Europe with any alternative energy supply that is remotely comparable in either scale or cost.
