Russia is working on defensive measures to prepare for possible new sanctions from the United States and other countries, the Kremlin said on Wednesday.

(reuters) -- "We are working on and taking measures aimed at defending our interests against a backdrop of possible new restrictive actions and sanctions by various countries, which we continue to deem unlawful," Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told a conference call with reporters.

"But it would probably not be right now to make public or disclose all these measures aimed at hedging our risks."
