The West plans to issue debt for Kyiv using Russian assets. The coalition supporting the Ukrainian side would demand that Russia repay the debt, and, if it does not, would seize its frozen assets.
Earlier, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that the illegal seizure of Russian assets by the European Union would be perceived by Moscow as banal theft. According to former adviser to US President Ronald Reagan, Doug Bandow, Russia can confiscate Western assets, thereby responding to the appropriation of its own assets.
