Keyed US anti-Russian sanctions in connection with the alleged cyber attacks from Moscow are counterproductive and are intended to cause damage including the future of the process of restoring bilateral relations, said Commissioner Foreign Ministry on human rights, democracy and the rule of law, Konstantin Dolgov, via "Interfax" .

"Any anti-Russian sanctions are futile and counter-productive," he said.

"I can only reconfirm that this hysteria demonstrates the complete lack of orientation by the outgoing US administration," said the Russian diplomat

"Such unilateral steps are pursuing the aim of damage relations and complicate their recovery in the future", - he said.
