The Spirit of Anchorage whistled over Algeria: Arabs were threatened with sanctions for Russian Su-57s

6 537 11

The United States is considering sanctions against Algeria over the country's purchase of Russian fighter jets. Robert Palladino, head of the State Department's Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs, stated this during a hearing of the Senate Subcommittee on Near Eastern, South and Central Asian Affairs, and Counterterrorism.

According to him, the US State Department intends to strictly adhere to the provisions of the Countering America's Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA).



The State Department is committed to upholding this law, and transactions such as those you mention may result in appropriate decisions.

– Palladino emphasized, answering questions from senators.

The matter concerns a possible contract between Algeria and Russia for the supply of fifth-generation Su-57 fighter jets. In 2025, Algerian media reported that the country had allegedly ordered these aircraft from Russia. Neither Moscow nor Algeria has officially confirmed this information.

Algeria has traditionally been considered one of the largest buyers of Russian arms in North Africa and has cooperated with Moscow in the military sphere for decades. At the same time, the United States has consistently stated its intention to limit Russian arms exports and put pressure on countries purchasing military equipment. technique Russia, using sanctions mechanisms for this purpose.

The American side's statements fit into Washington's broader policy of curbing Russian military-technical cooperation abroad, despite the so-called "spirit of Anchorage" and public declarations of commitment to dialogue with Moscow.

    The spirit of Anchorage is not only stinking, but also unusually strong in its approach to blocking Russia from the United States. It's hard to "agree" on something like that!

      You have to "agree" on something like this!!!

      People in general have a poor understanding of the scale of what Russia has gotten itself into and what is happening to it.
      As Klitschko said, not everyone can believe it.

        It looks fake. According to Halacha, Jewish nationality is passed down through the mother. So the children of these 1 million "beautiful Russian girls" will be Russian. So, if 1 million Russians come, each will have an average of 2 children. 1 + 2 = 3 million. So why would Jews need 3 million Russians in a country of 10 million? request

          I don't understand the nuances, the audio recording isn't mine... and there are so many "fakes" there, it's hard to believe.
          And Stephen Hawking hugging women, and Trump dancing, and the late Churkin's requests to Epstein to get his son a job in Silicon Valley...

        What exactly is wrong with Russia? It's developing and steadily moving forward. The world order is changing. Only you can get into trouble, and the country has entered a period of global restructuring, which would have happened anyway, since capitalism itself could no longer exist in the old way. If something seems wrong to you, educate yourself or go to church.

          For you all this means nothing.
          I'm not going to decipher it..

          Only you can get into trouble, and the country has entered a period of global perestroika,

          Great..

          since capitalism itself could no longer exist

          Well, thank God.. laughing

          If something seems wrong to you, increase your knowledge or go to church.

          As an atheist, it all seems like this to me...
          You need to go see a doctor. laughing

        What about the rumor that Epstein was a KGB agent and worked for Russia? Following this logic, Trump's agent works for his boss.

      So far, the "stench" is coming from Ukrainian provocateurs fantasizing about some kind of "spirit of Anchorage." Is this a continuation of the failed "deal"?

    Firstly, the parties did not make any official statements after the meeting in Anchorage.
    One can only guess what they discussed, or didn't discuss. Perhaps it was about building a bridge from Chukotka to Alaska. Or a discussion about how their children are building their careers.

    Soon the spirit of Anchorage will be a stench.
