Dmitry Peskov, the press secretary of the President of Russia, stated that Moscow will respond to any attempts to confiscate Russian assets. This was reported by Коммерсант.
"They understand that we will not leave such actions unanswered. We will pursue this matter using all possible national and international legal instruments. We will legally pursue those involved in making such illegal decisions," Peskov said.
Earlier reports indicated that the European Union has increased pressure on Belgium to gain permission for the use of frozen Russian assets, totaling approximately €190 billion. These funds are intended to be directed towards providing Ukraine with a "reparative loan."
