Interesting: Some of the Russian oligarchs, as we all know all too well, took their cash outside Russia to prevent the Russian government from taking back what they scarfed from it et alii…. If the U.S. is currently now stealing the cash from the oligarchs (whom they helped to steal the funds from Russia in the first place,) however, I shall laugh. And I am sure Mister Putin could allow himself a delicate smile upon the news that oligarchs ignoring the warnings have been backed stabbed…. The oligarchs ought to have known and or remembered that thieves mustn’t consort with violent robbers, or they’ll lose all they stole themselves – and find their throats cut with the sticky fingered discount…
ZURICH (Reuters) – One of Switzerland’s largest banks, Credit Suisse, has frozen roughly 5 billion Swiss francs ($5 billion) of money linked to Russia to avoid falling foul of U.S. sanctions, according to its accounts, further increasing pressure on Moscow.
You have to understand: Russia has warned these thieves many times to take care of their stolen money and these thieves listening to the USA and EU, stayed away from Mother Russia (because you know – Russia bad.) Now the thieves have been shanghaied by their mentors and that is just right…
Easy come easy go…
