“The confiscation of Russian assets in Europe will lead to undermining trust in the eurozone, because once you start,” he said.
The Russian dictator called the possible confiscation “robbery” and claims that Europe “sooner or later will have to return what it steals from Russian assets.”

“In the event of the seizure of its assets, Russia will defend itself in courts, in jurisdictions that do not depend on political decisions,” he added.
