Putin mocks EU's toilet sanctions, Has last laugh even under tough conditions? 'Will cost them...'

Russian President responds to the latest wave of US and EU sanctions, including the unusual ban on “toilets, puzzles, and tricycles.” In his remarks, he criticizes the U.S. decision to postpone talks, calling for “dialogue over confrontation.” He reveals that the meeting between Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio was meant to be the first step toward improved ties. The President also claims that sanctions will not fundamentally harm Russia’s economy and emphasizes that “no self-respecting nation yields under pressure.”
