The Kremlin said on Wednesday it continued to monitor statements by US President Donald Trump regarding sanctions against Moscow, but Russia had acquired immunity to such measures thanks to long experience.

Trump said on Tuesday that the United States would start imposing tariffs and other measures on Russia in 10 days if Moscow showed no progress toward ending its more than three-year-long war in Ukraine.

"We have been living under a huge number of sanctions for quite a long time, our economy operates under a huge number of restrictions," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told reporters.

"Therefore, of course, we have already developed a certain immunity in this regard, and we continue to note all statements that come from President Trump, from other international representatives on this matter."
