1. Ok.

2. Another empty threat. Russia has already compelled many foreign investors to sell up to Russians at rates so low that they have had to write off large losses. In many cases they have simply helped themselves to western assets.

3. bring it on!

4. So what will they do exactly?

5. It is not assets seizure, it is special dedolarization operation.

6. And what is Russia going to do about it, send another 1000 men and a few dozen tanks to get destroyed by Ukraine within a day? 

7. Anyway…

8. Threat or not, Russia is going to do what they want to do.

   But Russia has a choice to stop and make this all over in an instant anytime.

   If the world gets influenced by any more words they dish out, this world is pretty much being controlled by them… Like China, they excel at utilizing the weakness of democracy.

9. So all those items that Europeans buy now labelled ‘Made in Russia’ will be unavailable. No more Ladas for them.

10. On a Tuesday?
    We usually get threatened with thermonuclear annihilation on a Thursday……Thermo Thursday.
    Ah well Vlad baby……threaten away dude!
    You’ve got fuck all to say and you say it far too loud!

11. r/russiawarns

12. It’ll hurt you real bad.

    Got it.

13. Oh no you are going to seize our assets… which you have already done?

    Or are you gonna seize the remaining companies because please do, fuck them for staying in Russia…

14. Europe is already hurting. Do they realize it hurts what they do in Ukraine?

    All there is to say: Bring it on! We will win!

15. Come on, I can’t wait for it

16. Bully says I am going to beat you up as he gets punched.

17. What assets do We have left in that shithole that they have not already stolen, anyone still doing business in russia deserve to lose their assets anyways. Traitors get no pity

18. Retaliate how? Bomb some more kindergartens?

19. As a European I just shat myself. /s Putins like one someone who talks a great game then turns up with a floppy dick.

20. And they aren’t even going to have to do anything. Because the plan is to seize the profits the assets generate and not the assets themselves (basically taxing the profits generated with 100%)

    Unnecessary sabre rattling and posturing, as they are threatening to retaliate to something nobody planes to do (for now). Typical Russians…
