Putin's Swan Lake. Removal of Russian assets abroad will cause a dictator of the last blow

The undermining of the Kakhovka hydroelectric power station translates Russia into a state of absolute terrorist. And this gives grounds for confiscation in favor of Ukraine frozen in the west of Russian assets, says economist Vitaliy Shapran. Putin's Swan Lake. The blasting of dams to the Kakhovsky hydroelectric power station is a frank crime against civilians and civilian infrastructure. The mutilated water balance of the whole region.

Those regions above the Kakhovka reservoir will remain with a lack of water, in those below, this water is now on the roofs of private homes. The hands of Russian freaks realized a whole bunch of risks. As far as I understand, the dam is not completely destroyed, and the final losses will be calculated, but these losses will not be small and will count dozens of billions of dollars: it is obvious that all responsibility for the committed lies with the Russians.

Not only did they remove the heavy equipment in advance, but also carefully prepared the information space to cover this terrorist attack. Now in the headlines of the good part of the Western media: "It is not Russia . . . ", "The dam is old and it has undermined itself . . . ", "It's all Ukraine . . . " and more. In order to make the information space so, it takes a week or two careful preparation and a considerable budget.

Since the terrorist attack is frankly against the civilian population, of course, in Russia they are afraid of even more acute reaction of the United Kingdom, the EU and the US, so the Russians sang that "not all is so clear . . . ". But it turns out that it is clear. And after the army of the aggressor did not allow to evacuate people from the Left Bank, and they did not carry out this evacuation themselves, they added genocide to the violation of the water balance of the region and ecocide.

I think that it is time for our European partners to start confiscation of Russian state assets frozen in the EU, in favor of Ukraine, and it is time to make it clear to the Russians that they have lost their CPI forever.

Moreover, there are two legal precedents in the world when central banks were brought beyond assets that cannot be confiscated: first, the US Supreme Court's decision in 2016 for all Iranian assets arrested in the United States; Secondly, the decision of the International Court of Justice of 30. 03. 2023 that the assets of the central bank of Iran are subject to confiscation. I do not see how the Iran CB is different from the CBR, no differences.

In this matter, it is time to put the final point, as the CBD management feeds the Russians with the hopes that their reserves will be returned. The unambiguous answer from the EU will lead to the fact that within the establishment of the aggressor country will begin the search for the perpetrators, for the loss of $ 392. 5 billion ZVR will need to be answered, as well as for losses from sanctions and losses from war.
