He also added that Russia's response could have "more global implications."

Earlier, the representative of the European Commission, Christian Wiegand, said that the EC supports Estonia's intention to proceed with the confiscation of Russian financial assets.

Thus, he answered the question of journalists about the plans of the Estonian authorities to publish their own legal plan for the confiscation of Russian assets arrested in the country.

On January 5, Estonian Foreign Minister Urmas Reinsalu said that Estonia plans to independently develop a mechanism for transferring frozen Russian financial assets to Ukraine.
