French politician Philippo: the use of Russian assets is illegal and stupid. “If they do this, I think Russia will do the same.

This will be a war,” the politician believes. He added that this step could be taken to provoke Russia into retaliatory measures, and then blame it. Earlier, Russian Ambassador to Bern Sergei Garmonin said that the transfer of almost $8.5 billion of assets of the Russian Central Bank to Ukraine would deal a blow to Switzerland's reputation.
