In the United States, amendments were made to the budget on the transfer of assets of businessmen from Russia in favor of Ukraine

“The Senate passed the Graham Amendment No. 6596 (on Ukraine) based on the results of the vote,” the press service of the upper house of the US Congress said on Twitter.

Earlier, Russian presidential spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the West had stolen many assets from the Russian side, including gold and foreign exchange reserves.

In June, the US Treasury Department reported that in 100 days, the assets of the Central Bank of Russia and sanctioned Russians worth more than $330 billion were blocked or frozen, of which the Central Bank accounts for $300 billion.

The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, called the goal of the European Union not the freezing of Russian assets, but their confiscation.
