White House says does not rule out switching off Russia from SWIFT
WASHINGTON, Jan 19 (PRIME) -- The U.S. Administration does not rule out the possibility of switching off Russia from the international interbank settlement system SWIFT in case of further escalation of the Ukrainian crisis, U.S. White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki told reporters late on Tuesday.
“No option is off the table in our view. We continue consulting closely with European counterparts on severe counter-consequences for Russia if it further invades Ukraine,” she said.
