    The United States and Europe stole Russian assets and is using the profit from those to make a loan to Ukraine. _What Russia and every other country on earth now knows is that you cannot trust the United States if you disagree with them and should not be holding your reserves in the US dollar, but instead should be holding them in gold and other assets that are not able to be seized by the United States.

      Gosh, I wonder what Russia might have done to piss off half the world and seize their funds.

      First time war?

      It has always been like that and it’s a reason a war should be avoided when you don’t have the power to maintain your military and economic force…

      And it’s exactly why main leaders of the worlds warned russia months before the invasion until the first day of the invasion: “Are you sure? You should not move so many troops near ukraine border for your ’exercice’ Because you have more too loose as a super-power country”

      He didn’t listen so now pay back!

      If any country pays attention to US foreign policy, they’ve known this for decades.

      I wonder if you’d feel the same way if Israeli assets were seized? I doubt it.

          You ask them. They refuse to talk about Israel.

        Other countries should make it impossible for the US to seize anything without force being required. L

          That has nothing to do with my comment.

          Would you be okay if Israel’s assets were seized and the money given to Palestinian resistance groups? Because I’m guessing you would. That would be the ethical thing to do.

          Russia, obviously, is special to you. You’re against the ethical thing in that case, despite Putin also committing genocide.

            I am against the United States being able to seize the assets of other countries, whether it be Russia or Israel or Egypt or anywhere else. The US does not have the right to be able to just seize somebody’s assets. That’s called theft. And theft is wrong.

              That still has nothing to do with my comment. It’s very dishonest of you keep evading what I’m talking about.

                  You did not. You talked about the U.S., not G7 as a whole. No one asked you about the U.S. The vast majority of seized assets have not been seized by the U.S.

                    Ah, okay, I see. Well, regardless whether it’s the US or Europe or whatever, I don’t feel as though any country should have the right to seize another country’s assets.
