A Russian court ordered the seizure of assets of Commerzbank, Unicredit, and Deutsche bank. A St. Petersburg court has seized over €700mn of assets belonging to three western banks - UniCredit, Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank. The seizure is one of the biggest moves against western lenders since Moscow’s invasion of Ukraine. The Russian war on Ukraine prompted most international lenders to withdraw or wind down their businesses in Russia. Watch this to know more.

What the hell, Russians are criminals? This is nonsense. The US has invaded numerous countries and carried out over 69 regime changes. The EU and the UK have also committed many illegal acts. But Russia is the worst? What a smokescreen. Sure, watching CNN and all our biased media tells the truth. How naive. When you do real research, you will see that the US has spent over $300 billion in Ukraine since 2014. These are the facts.

Russia just gave warning to Western countries that if you seize my assets then I will seize you assets.
