RussiaSanctions

On May 25, 2025, the Russian stock market suffered a significant blow following Donald Trump's statements about the possible introduction of new sanctions against Russia. The Moscow Exchange index fell by 1.62% within just a few hours of trading, leading to a loss of capitalization of about 100 billion rubles. The most affected were the shares of Gazprom, which quickly lost value. The market's decline was a reaction to investors' fears about the intensification of economic pressure from the United States, which could further complicate the situation of the Russian economy.
