Putin - suggested restricting exports of strategic raw materials to the United States:
>A number of goods are being restricted to us. Maybe we should also think about certain restrictions? Uranium, titanium, nickel. We should not do anything to our own detriment. But some countries are creating strategic reserves, and some other measures are being taken. But in general, if it does not harm us, we could think about certain restrictions on supplies to the foreign market, not only of the goods I mentioned, but also of some others. I will not talk about the reasons, but I think everyone understands the importance of Russian raw materials for the items I have mentioned.
