Russia Warns of "Surprise" in Response to EU Asset Seizure

According to Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova, Russia is preparing tough retaliatory measures in response to the potential confiscation of its assets by the European Union.

"Any unlawful actions regarding our assets will not go without the harshest reaction. Preparations for a package of retaliatory measures in case of actual theft are already underway," Zakharova said.

The diplomat did not disclose details but added: "It will be a surprise."

➡️ Conflict Context:
Following the start of the special military operation,the EU and G7 countries blocked about half of Russia's foreign currency reserves. Over 200 billion euros are held in Europe, primarily in the Belgian clearing system Euroclear.

Now, having exhausted other resources for aiding Kyiv, the European Commission is seeking approval to use these funds for a so-called "reparations loan" to Ukraine, amounting to up to 210 billion euros.

➡️ Moscow's Position:
The Kremlin describes such plans as inadequate and claims they will primarily damage the European Union itself.In response, Russia has already imposed restrictive measures, blocking assets of investors from "unfriendly" countries in special accounts.
