Europe's Seizure of Russian Assets Sparks Threat of Reciprocity from Russia
Russia's Finance Minister, Anton Siluanov, has warned that if Europe seizes frozen Russian assets, Russia will respond with a symmetrical action. Siluanov stated that Russia has enough assets frozen within its borders, including securities and dividends, which have generated substantial returns. He emphasized that if the West takes a similar decision, Russia is prepared to use these assets as a financial response.
