As a German I can assure you our entire population shares your hope. Note that just this day his political party (SPD) said they would kick him out, meaning he can't leech off of tax money anymore.
USA / New York here- there is a lot of talk on the radio / TV here calling for the US government to allow NY to begin seizing the luxury apartments of Oligarch's in Manhattan. Hoping they do it!!
Yesterday the Netherlands voted for a proposal that stated that all seized Russian assets will be liquidated and the profits will be placed in a trust fund meant for the rebuilding of Ukraine.
Good! Name the other oligarchs as well. They all deserve to be hung. Russian bastards are killing kids. I wasn’t angry at the Russian people, until today. Their soldiers are killing kids and women for no reason. I feel like, what more does it take, what more does Russia have to see to realize Putin must go! Must the world lay Russian low, for this to stop? The longer they wait, the more chances he has to use the unthinkable. Then it will be too late, your nation will be held accountable for its participation.
Putin started rattling that saber weeks ago. It’s one of the excuses some governments and the pundits used to insist that he couldn’t possibly be serious, that he wasn’t planning an invasion.
If your first threat don’t work… Cary on nothing to see. We as the world will destroy Putin and his cronies. We stand however we can with Ukraine 🇺🇦 Slava ukraini
Get killed by those close who don't have a terminal illness and aren't prepared to lose everything over a madman. There is only one solution here, and that is an assassination of Putin. Let's remember who we are dealing with here... those propping up Putin aren't career businessmen or politicians used to civil negotiations, they are mobsters and thugs. A single well placed bullet solves a lot of problems for a lot of people.
World not very impressed by first threat. Second threat just as empty. This is Putin, all talk. From his days as kgb attaché in Germany to now, he is all words. Show me one time he has kept his word? He thought taking Ukraine would be days, but see his army faltering. No fuel, breakdowns, desertion, food that went bad in 2015. His entire army is lies, his empire is based on lies. And now we topple his house of cards.
Once this terrorists attack is over with the Ukraine is going to need to rebuild so the money from these terrorists are most likely going towards that.
Take back all of their fucking property that they're holding in the US and UK, I'm tired of them buying up condos and leaving them fucking empty while there's so much homelessness. These fuckers shouldn't be allowed to own anything
The problem is that by seizing the assets, the russians dont have any reason to back down anymore. If you only freeze them, they have a reason to come to their senses
The Oligarchs can re-make money, they will have other assets as a safety net stocked up somewhere that cant be touched, they remember the fall of the USSR.
Seize and hold. Inform that the $$ will be used to repair damage Russia inflicts on Ukraine from the moment of seizure. Clock ticking. Every minute/hour/day that damage & death continues, more and more and more of the seized $$ will unfortunately (yeah, so sad) have to be deducted from the pool of seized funds.
It's true but it shocks them too and makes them think their wealth is in a death spiral that can only be stopped by rapidly installing a new President who immediately stops hostilities
I really wonder how this would have been handled had Trump been in office. Good on the Biden Whitehouse, and Western Europe for going the extra step. My only wish is for the military from NATO nations to play a larger role before this whole thing turns into a killing field.
Those funds should be used to rebuild everything Russia has destroyed in Ukraine. And to compensate Ukrainian refugees for their losses, and to pay for medical care and rehabilitation of injured Ukrainians, and to pay damages to families of murdered Ukrainians. And that just for a start.
Nuclear weapons and bombs are not the only weapons that can backfire. the US and the world are trying to avoid a backfire by not limiting Russia's energy exports. To me, this is a really scary line to walk for all countries involved.
Then make sure these oligarchs, and any other putin cronies that the faster they remove him, the faster they get most of their shit back. Keep some if it to pay for the rebuilding of ukraine
This is what the Romans did. Sulla created proscription lists. Anyone on the list could be murdered and their property auctioned. This is how Crassus became the richest Roman / buying cheap stuff. Caesar and Octavian and MA used this tactic also to find their wars.
Well who else is going to pay for rebuilding an entirely destroyed country? And who will pay for the military pensions of remaining family of those who died defending their country?
Finally, I said on day 1 that this should happen - freezing assets is like saying "we will still forgive afterwards", seizing assets means no way back.
Freeze= its still yours but you can't use it. Seize = it does not belong to you anymore. If they didn't expect this they're probably shitting their pants
Hell yeah. Take the assets and never return them. Let them cry about how unfair that is. Bonus round, sell them back to them at ten times their value, and distribute the funds to the victims of their collective war crimes as restitution.
Seize Schröder, let him suffer in hunger like any other russian. And seize Putlers children.
German taxpayers are still paying him 400k€ a year for his duties as former chancellor. Really pisses me off.
Wladolf Putler and his Putlerjugend.
As a German I can assure you our entire population shares your hope. Note that just this day his political party (SPD) said they would kick him out, meaning he can't leech off of tax money anymore.
Three fiddy on the mega yacht
He moved it out of Germany a few weeks ago leading up to the invasion.
It's the god damn Loch Ness monster!
USA / New York here- there is a lot of talk on the radio / TV here calling for the US government to allow NY to begin seizing the luxury apartments of Oligarch's in Manhattan. Hoping they do it!!
Please please please 🙏🙏🙏
Make them public housing just to show Russia what true socialism is
Please do it all over the country. Maybe housing prices will come down.
Good way to make $$ NY!!
I'll bet they are in Trump Tower.
Donate them to Ukraine. They deserve a block of luxury apartments in New York and a fleet of yachts.
Yesterday the Netherlands voted for a proposal that stated that all seized Russian assets will be liquidated and the profits will be placed in a trust fund meant for the rebuilding of Ukraine.
USA civil forfeiture system coming to a dictator near you
Ohhh yeah.
Good! Name the other oligarchs as well. They all deserve to be hung. Russian bastards are killing kids. I wasn’t angry at the Russian people, until today.

Welcome to 5 days ago.
i feel like if putin is talking about using nukes then they arent actually on the table yet.
Putin started rattling that saber weeks ago. It’s one of the excuses some governments and the pundits used to insist that he couldn’t possibly be serious, that he wasn’t planning an invasion.
If your first threat don’t work… Cary on nothing to see. We as the world will destroy Putin and his cronies. We stand however we can with Ukraine 🇺🇦 Slava ukraini
If his nukes are maintained as well as all his other cold war weapons we have nothing to worry about
What does a crazy dictator with nukes do when he has nothing left and possibly a terminal illness?
Saber rattle and get told to fuck off by the 12 other people with families that need to assist in a nuclear launch.
Get killed by those close who don't have a terminal illness and aren't prepared to lose everything over a madman. There is only one solution here, and that is an assassination of Putin. Let's remember who we are dealing with here... those propping up Putin aren't career businessmen or politicians used to civil negotiations, they are mobsters and thugs. A single well placed bullet solves a lot of problems for a lot of people.

Our assets
France is planning to do the same.
Once this terrorists attack is over with the Ukraine is going to need to rebuild so the money from these terrorists are most likely going towards that.
It's 'Ukraine' and not 'the Ukraine'
Yaw, that's one of my senators. Wrote to him day1.
Not to mention Putin’s potential ties to narco trafficking in Russia (which contradicts his hard line drug stance)
Quite the contrary: if a politician is against legalizing drugs, they probably make money from it in the parallel market.
Take back all of their fucking property that they're holding in the US and UK, I'm tired of them buying up condos and leaving them fucking empty while there's so much homelessness. These fuckers shouldn't be allowed to own anything
Yeah... But when you got these assets just because you were friends with a murderous dictator, you had to assume it wouldn't have lasted forever?
Don’t just FREEZE- SEIZE!!!
Yup, Putin done fucked up big time
We fuck you up. We takes the money, Lebowski. We'll cut off your Johnson!
I doubt Putin will ever step foot into that castle of his ever again.
The problem is that by seizing the assets, the russians dont have any reason to back down anymore. If you only freeze them, they have a reason to come to their senses
They aren't going to back down. This is to put pressure on the inner circle. I hope it freaking works.
An oligarch without assets is no one. Money talks.
The Oligarchs can re-make money, they will have other assets as a safety net stocked up somewhere that cant be touched, they remember the fall of the USSR.
There has never been talk about repealing sanctions after this brutality ends.
Seize and hold. Inform that the $$ will be used to repair damage Russia inflicts on Ukraine from the moment of seizure. Clock ticking. Every minute/hour/day that damage & death continues, more and more and more of the seized $$ will unfortunately (yeah, so sad) have to be deducted from the pool of seized funds.
It's true but it shocks them too and makes them think their wealth is in a death spiral that can only be stopped by rapidly installing a new President who immediately stops hostilities
Most useful thing Murphy has done ever. Source he's my state senator and hopefully read my email
Murphy is a serious guy. He seems always sedate and wanting to keep the world safe
I hope Canada gets into investigation of their assets, I wonder how much they have invested in real estate.
Seize and sell and give the money to Ukraine to help rebuild.
US Government openly said they are "hunting" Russian assets worldwide.
Happy hunting!
I really wonder how this would have been handled had Trump been in office. Good on the Biden Whitehouse, and Western Europe for going the extra step. My only wish is for the military from NATO nations to play a larger role before this whole thing turns into a killing field.
Those funds should be used to rebuild everything Russia has destroyed in Ukraine. And to compensate Ukrainian refugees for their losses, and to pay for medical care and rehabilitation of injured Ukrainians, and to pay damages to families of murdered Ukrainians. And that just for a start.
Take every Russian asset on the face of the earth, EVERYTHING!!!
But unfortunately, Vlad is still selling oil.
Nuclear weapons and bombs are not the only weapons that can backfire. the US and the world are trying to avoid a backfire by not limiting Russia's energy exports. To me, this is a really scary line to walk for all countries involved.
bruh give me some please lmao
Any assets seized should be passed on to Ukraine. Imagine rebuilding the nation using Putin & Co's riches. Ahhhhh
Seize it all and send it Ukraine’s way! Use their own assets against them!
Seize it and use it to rebuild Ukraine. It's the least they can do..
Who is going to tell Putin? He is not going to be happy…lol
Might be like that scene in Downfall where Hitler loses his shit.
Then make sure these oligarchs, and any other putin cronies that the faster they remove him, the faster they get most of their shit back. Keep some if it to pay for the rebuilding of ukraine
Well someone will have to rebuild Ukraine, so those assets and money will help to do that
Russian oligarhs sure have a lot and I mean a lot of property outside of Russia in western Europe.
Don't know why but
Where they putin it? Buy a thousand fleets of those turkish drones.
Yachts for sale.
Maybe Switzerland should just publicize the list over accounts different high level Russians have in their banks...
Americans - here’s a quick prompt to use the ResistBot to send letters to your congressional reps - text the phrase SIGN PAGKVV to 50409
HA......HA.
give the assets to Ukraine!
Literally free money
OUR assets
Take it all, sell it at auctions, donate to Ukrainian families and rebuild efforts. Or just families... Make the Russians pay to rebuild.
I thought maybe extort these oligarchs to put a hit on him, by arresting their kids in europe and using them as leverage could work.
Putin got enough wealth in his motherland and in Crypto. He won't care about these.
Sounds like reparations to me!
Now’s the chance to even out all the residential real estate in Canada and the US that have been bought up for money laundering and speculation.
"hey we can steal too."
Guess the Ukrainian Navy can expect some new mega yachts in the future
After seizing them, they should be auctioned off and the proceeds donated towards the Ukrainian people.
This is what the Romans did. Sulla created proscription lists. Anyone on the list could be murdered and their property auctioned. This is how Crassus became the richest Roman / buying cheap stuff. Caesar and Octavian and MA used this tactic also to find their wars.
Well who else is going to pay for rebuilding an entirely destroyed country? And who will pay for the military pensions of remaining family of those who died defending their country?

Finally, I said on day 1 that this should happen - freezing assets is like saying "we will still forgive afterwards", seizing assets means no way back.
That's gonna be an awkward conversation at Trump Tower.
Putin can’t move that big Black Sea mansion.
That is no mansion. That is a God damn evil lair.
“The money we stole is being taken from us! How can this be!?!”
I propose Ukrainians go on a cruise after the invasion while Russia rebuilds.
what does this mean?
Freeze= its still yours but you can't use it. Seize = it does not belong to you anymore. If they didn't expect this they're probably shitting their pants
"This is huge." Was expecting a photo of Zelenskyy's balls.
Could I trouble you for an apartment, they have tons to go around
Hell yeah. Take the assets and never return them. Let them cry about how unfair that is. Bonus round, sell them back to them at ten times their value, and distribute the funds to the victims of their collective war crimes as restitution.

It's real. That is a US Senator.
Shut

They seizing trump as well?
Well, he did say Russian oligarchs. So, yes.
That's not that huge. They're still beating around the bush and tip-toeing around Putin.
Fucking hate this "The US and allies"
