  • US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said, “I believe there is a strong international law, economic and moral case for moving forward,” as she called on the world’s largest advanced economies to find a way to “unlock the value” of immobilized Russian assets to help bolster Ukraine’s defense against Russia’s invasion. Yellen spoke Tuesday in Sao Paulo before meeting with her counterparts from the world’s top economies.

      Biden's people don't think. They just wanted this war with Russia at any cost because they still can't get over Hillary Clinton losing the 2016 election. Now that Ukraine is an Iraq War sequel that Russia has already won, they need to save face.

    This is how the money is flowing. Russian asset "goes to Zelenskyy", but he is only allowed to buy weapons from US manufacturers (in fact if they use the same money to buy Chinese made weapons, 1 US bullet = 3 Chinese bullets, but of course that money cannot be recycled back to the US Treasury). So the final destination of the Russian's 300 billion dollars will end up into the US weapons manufacturers and ultimately back to the pockets of the politicians who are getting their "sponsorship money" from these US people. Of course the American people will eventually get those money via washing dishes for these rich people or cook McDonald for them in the restuarant to get the benefits out of them. That's what exactly is going on. My question, does BBC, CNN, New York Times and the ordinary people in the US actually understand what really is going on? Or are they all blinded by the word "freedom", "democracy"?

    Russia:.. In the case of asset confiscation, we will be guided by the principle of reciprocity in international relations, which provides for the inalienable right to retaliate. We have a significant amount of Western funds and property in Russian jurisdiction, which may be subject to our actions. We are not going to reveal their nature, but the arsenal of political and economic countermeasures against unfriendly countries is wide. We will not stand on ceremony in the case of attempts to use immobilized Russian reserves as collateral for bonds that can allegedly be issued by the West in order to attract private capital to finance the Kiev regime. Any individuals and funds that decide to purchase such financial instruments will be the first candidates to fall under "counter-sanctions" with far-reaching consequences for the prospects of their international activities...
